柿の花おちてぞ人の目に留る
kaki no hana ochite zo hito no me ni tomaru
David’s English
persimmon blossoms
falling...
only now noticed
Shinji Ogawa paraphrases: "persimmon blossoms ... only after falling down they are noticed." He adds, "Persimmon blooms in a very modest way; the view of the red-brown flowers is obscured by the summer leaves."
