Husband died; the only son married;
a liberated woman am I?
No... loneliness creeps in
when I cook dinner.
one cup
of rice washed...
the pot too large
夫は逝き、一人息子は結婚。
私は解放されて
自由な昔にもどれるだろうか?
いいえ....... 一人暮らしの淋しさが
夕餉の支度をするたびに
じわじわと寄ってくる。
一杯の米 電気クッカー 大きすぎ

Tei, this haibun is especially poignant. So much left out, but "one cup/ of rice" says everything.
