Hydrangea sets a poignant text by Japanese-American poet Miho Kinnas (1960–)

I wanted to love you
without regrets, without sorrow.
Flowers will return,
its color deep blue
but you are not here anymore
I didn't know your kindness
until hydrangea swayed in the rain.

A fallen umbrella.
Red lights flashed in the rain.
It's too late now,
too dark
hydrangea swayed.
I wondered how many rains have passed.

I wanted to love you
without regrets, without sorrow.
Flowers return.
Seasons turn.
