Lemon Elegy
You waited a lemon for such a long time
Lying on the sad and white deathbed.
You took a lemon from my hand
And bite into it with your beautiful teeth
Then the Topaz colored fragrance permeated the air
The few drops of gifted lemon juice
Brought you back in a flash
Your clear blue eyes smiled faintly
I felt the vigor through the power you griped my hands
You had a storm in your throat
On the brink of life
Chieko came back to Chieko
You put your whole life time of love into this moment
And in this moment
You took a deep breath like on the peak of the mountain
And the engine stopped forever
Under the Cherry blossoms offered to your photo
I put a fresh, shining lemon today as well.
(The poem was written in Japanese originally and I translated it to English. Chieko is the poet's wife who had a mental disease )

英詩の翻訳練習：雪
白雪の暗がりで
白雪の静けさで
ため息ついている少女は
苦々しそうに言っている
『白い鳥は巣の上で殺された
胸の綿毛がパタパタと震えている』
雪の鳥は薄明かりを通り抜け
少女の泣き声で落ちた
（こは詩かどうか言えませんが、詩から見れば、コメントよろしくお願いします）

Please make a comment to the poem in terms of the sense of language as a native English speaker
France is where I'd like to go,
but France is so far away...
Maybe I could just get a new suit
and travel to where my feet
and the train will take me.
as we chug up a mountain pass,
I lean against the sky blue window
following my own carefree thoughts
---dewy shoots of grass unfurling on a May morning.
(Question: As a native English speaker, when you read this poem, is there anything you feel uncomfortable in terms of the language sense or any other)

The failure
The failure is caused by the total things that the person has done until then so I have doubted it couldn’t be other outcome for a long time. It depends on the person’s character, general education, environment and the course of events. It seems everyone is not so smart that we should care for each other.

ティーパーティー1
昔、アイルランドの祖母の家の付近にある少年が住んでいた。名前はイブラードで、１４歳であった。私はその頃１２歳で、氏を毛虫のように嫌がった。だが、祖母は隣人などを誘って、ティーパーティーを開くが好きだった。しかも、温かい茶菓子が載せ、敵意のある小さな蓋付きお皿があるティーパーティーであった。また、呼び集められた婦人たちに上品的にこの敵意のあるお皿を回すのは私の任務と言われた。いわゆる右手でお皿を持ちながら、左手で蓋を掲げ、茶菓子を渡すことであった。しかし、この一連の動作は私にとって物理的に不可能であった。片方の手で磨きながらもう片方の手で押さえることを伴う耐え難しい訓練のように煩わしいからであった。婦人たちのそばを通りながら、グループの中で渡る時で蓋を大きく開けていてゲストに茶菓子を渡す時で蓋をしっかり閉めていた。一回もこの正しい組み合わせが成功しなかった。例えば、歩き回りながらお皿をしっかり閉めなかった、茶菓子を渡しながらもてなしの良く開けなかった。

Japan
Even as a Japanese historian I travel a lot and you may question about that. It is because I can know more if I leave Japan and it is time to write Japanese history in the modern world history. The far I leave Japan, the more I can know. That is an objective Japan and a Japan as part of world. I had considered the things related to Japan when I were in North America and Europe. Under the stimulus of the world gaze of “what is Japan”, we can view Japan from all different angles.

How do you interpret "edge behind the furniture" in the following context?
Context:
No, let us educate the younger generation to be shy in and out of season: to edge behind the furniture, to say spasmodic and ill-digested things: to twist their feet round the protective feet of sofas and armchairs; to feel that their hands belong to someone else―that they are objects, which they long to put down on some table away from themselves.
Question: I couldn't understand the meaning of " to edge behind the furniture, to say spasmodic and ill-digested things: to twist their feet round the protective feet of sofas and armchairs; to feel that their hands belong to someone else―that they are objects, which they long to put down on some table away from themselves.

William Empson 2
Sometimes, when we are drinking tea together, I said, “the world has been disordered totally, something old is losing its power and something new is always changing, I really don’t know what to do.” Then he answered, “I don’t think so. There is hope in the confusion. If we were in the well-ordered world, we can do nothing with it. However, the work that giving a new standard to the world of being disordered has been left for us. It is interesting, isn’t?”. 25-year-old is an age that being full of hope. It’s time to set one’s life goal.

William Empson
William Empson began to teach English literature in a Japanese University when he was 25 years old. At that time he had already been the author of a great book, Seven Types of Ambiguity and it was so good that he was quite young. As a method to radiate his youthfulness which was filled with energy, he decided to come to university by motorcycle. With his hair steaming out in the wind, his eyes widely opened, he held the handle bars tightly, not fussing over the speed limit to rend the wind in early summer as well as ride into university with a sound like “da, da, da, da”. It was, indeed, a spectacular sight.
