欅の巨樹から生命力を教わる

　ご覧の欅は倉賀野緑地の中央にあるもので、誠に大きく見事な風貌です。幹を触ると私はつい「てっぽう」をしてしまいます。これほど葉が多いと、我々の生命維持に欠くべからざる酸素をどれ程多く生産してるか計りしれません。

　ここは芝生が広がり、いつもきれいになってます。高崎市の公園緑地課が管理してます。小さな子供を思い切り運動させたいですが、実際には犬を連れた方々の交流の場になってます。この木が作る日陰もすごく広く、涼しいです。

 This zelcova tree you see is in the center of the Kuragano green park, and it looks really large and has a marvelous appearance. When I touch the trunk, I just push up named Teppo. With so many leaves, it is difficult to measure how much oxygen produces that is indispensable to sustain our lives.

 The lawn spreads out here and is always beautiful. It is managed by the Park and Greenery Division of Takasaki City. We would like to exercise our small children to the fullest, but actually it is a place for people's interact with their dogs. The shade made by this tree is also very wide and cool.
