何が起ころうとしているのか. . .私には分からなかったが

とにかくその時が

私に訪れようとしていた

ある日の午後

私は裏庭に出て

巣箱をあけた

	Gloved hands lift the hivetop, 遠い遠い above the departing 蜂（複）. The fingers in the gloves feel warm. The 蜂（複） hear the warmth. Some do, anyway... but don't know what it is, and band their wings against the 蜜蜂の巣, to drive away the intrusive sensation.

09:50

Gloved hands lift the hivetop, far far above the departing bees. The fingers in the gloves feel warm. The bees hear the warmth. Some do, anyway... but don't know what it is, and band their wings against the comb, to drive away the intrusive sensation.
