路上でよく声をかけられる。瞬間わからないが、
見違えるように成長した女性が、コーチと
明るく笑っている。
I often come across a stranger.
I can't make out at the moment, but
there she is having grown up to be
a nice lady saying, "Hello, coach!" with a wide
smile as she used to do in a junior high.
名前がすぐに出てこないが、
幸せそうな顔を見てて、おう、元気にしてるんだ。
I always have a hard time to recall her name,
but "Oh, you look fine, don't you?", I say
looking at a lady full of joy with her.
いつも心の中で言う。
僕は君のコーチだよ、いまでも。
いつでも相談にのるよ、お金はそんなに
持ってないけど、と。
I keep saying in my mind, "I am still your
coach, and will be." Come see me anytime.
Not much money I have, though.
明後日、そんな教え子とともに
４月に開校したての、猪名川の農業専門学校を
訪問する。
理事長さんと初めて会うためだ。
I am going to visit with a lady a new school
in Inagawa region, that has just opened
in this April specializing in organic farming
the day after tomorrow.
To give her a chance to meet the head of
the school.
また、緑いっぱいの中で、新しい働き場を
得られればいいな、と願っている。
I do wish she could find a new place where
there were lots of Mother nature.
