    Tanabata (七夕, meaning "Evening of the seventh"), also known as the Star Festival, is a Japanese festival originating from the Chinese Qixi Festival. It celebrates the meeting of the deities Orihime and Hikoboshi (represented by the stars Vega and Altair respectively). According to legend, the Milky Way separates these lovers, and they are allowed to meet only once a year on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month of the lunisolar calendar. The date of Tanabata varies by region of the country, but the first festivities begin on 7 July of the Gregorian calendar. The celebration is held at various days between July and August.

小学校しょうがっこう低学年ていがくねんの頃ころ、僕ぼくは父ちちに俳句はいくを教おしえられ、俳人はいじんに憧あこがれた。七夕たなばたの願ねがい事ごとも「はい人ひとになれますように」と書かいた。あれから３０さんれい年ねん、願ねがいはかなった。今いまや僕ぼくは紛まぎれもない廃人はいじんだ。
When I was in my first years of grade school, my father taught me a haiku and I longed to be a poet. On my Tanabata wish, I also wrote "Please make me a poet". Thirty years have passed and my wish has been granted. I am without doubt an invalid.
