Healing

Day 3.

🌅🦁

"Healing" is a poem that expresses the feeling of togetherness as a group, as a family. When the lionesses are feeling stressed or sad, hugging each other and stroking each other's fur has a relaxing, even meditative, effect. For the golden line that never breaks.

「癒し」は、グループ、家族としての一体感を表現した詩です。
雌ライオンがストレスや悲しみを感じているとき、抱き合ったり、お互いの毛を撫でたりすることは、リラックス効果があり、瞑想のような効果さえももたらします。決して途切れることのない黄金の繋がりのために。

Healing

A scent is something special
And being surrounded by
The familiar is
A sensorial embrace

We share this amber air
Giving each other
Grooming, nuzzling, licking,
and pressing
A bond that strengthens

The body begins to relax
The heartbeat calms
And we fall asleep
Together as a pride
Until dawn

癒し

香りは特別なもの
そして、馴染みのある香りに
囲まれることは
感覚的な抱擁

この琥珀色の空気を分かち合い
お互いに与え合い
毛づくろいをし、鼻をこすりつけ、舐め合い、 そして抱きしめ合うことで
絆は深まる

体はリラックスし始め
心臓の鼓動は静まり
そして眠りに落ちる
プライドの群れとして
夜明けまで

Shared Sky

Day 5. 🌲🦤 "Shared Sky" is a poem that documents a sanctuary. I elevated this poem from personal observation to a universal message about conservation. In my mission to share the Earth and its ecosystems, I depict how a single cedar tree transforms into something far greater, becoming a safe haven for all animals. 「分け合う空」は、ある安らぎの場を記録した詩です。私はこの詩を、個人的な観察から、環境保護に関する普遍的なメッセージへと昇華。地球とその生態系を共有するという私の使命において、一本の杉の木が、いかにしてはるかに偉大な存在へと変貌し、あらゆる動物にとっての安全な避難所となるのかを描き出しています。 🌲🦤 Shared Sky A magnificent visitor appears His elegant colour steers Across the vast sky The massive wetland bird soars His slender neck explores Into the cast away With its powerful wings A spring heron Has he taken Flight far from Its nesting ground Caught in a glimpse of rivalry Chased by a flock of sea gulls With its high stealth A spring heron Has he vanished From far fright Their territory bound Camouflaged in a dense dark den Circled by a flock of sea gulls With its centred p...

The Inner Compass

Day 4.  🌊🦭 "The Inner Compass" is a poem depicting a gray seal resting on the shore, protected by m arine environmentalists , surrounded by ribbons. This poem aims to raise awareness of the lives of marine life and the health of the ocean. They live in harmony with the seasons and the tides. 「内なる羅針盤」は、海の 環境保護人 たちに リボンで囲まれ、 守られながら海岸で休むハイイロアザラシを描いた詩です。 この詩は、海洋生物の生命と海の健全性への意識を高めることを目的としています。彼らは季節や潮の満ち引き​​と調和して生きているのです。 🌊🦭 The Inner Compass My friend You swim a hundred miles Wandering the azure sea As long as the seasons allow You glide through every wind Your immense journey Relying on your inner compass Using the fins of your hind legs Sprinting at high speed Through the deep blue seas And the wind carries you To the shore where you Rest on the beach of low tide For a brief moment of peace Until the high tide Signals the time Of the next hunt My friend You set out again Towards the azure desert Wandering the vast ocean As long as the s...

A Feathered Assistant

Day.8 🐦🌳 "A Featherd Assistant" is a poem about a small bird, a female juvenile robin that visits the garden. It captures her foraging on the ground while the garden is being watered or immediately afterward. Hopping across the damp earth, she pecks at insects; her movements evoke scenes typical of the forest ecosystem, reminiscent of the interactions between medium-sized mammals and small birds. 🐦🌳 「羽のある相棒」は、庭にくる小さな鳥、メスのヨーロッパコマドリ若鳥を詠んだ詩です。庭の水やり中やその直後に、彼女が地面で餌を探す様子を観察しています。彼女は、水で湿った地面をぴょんぴょんと移動しながら、虫をついばんでいきます。その姿は、森の生態系の中で中型の哺乳類と小さな鳥たちの間で見られる光景を彷彿とさせるものです。 🐦🌳 A Feathered Assistant A tiny morning star Her "chi-chi-chi" entrance The music holds a real appeal She wears a golden-spotted brown coat And has a mottled golden-buff head Her contact call is a real deal Signalling me she's ready Whatever tiny insects or seeds For her breakfast No.2 That bright, curious look Is endearing, Those big, shiny eyes Are enquiring, The quick head t...
