for a stay nice and short like a haiku |
| [00:19.04] |
dear Jipangu I wish to thank you |
| [00:22.64] |
arigato to coastal lines both vivid and pastel |
| [00:26.53] |
an unframed canvas untamed by us the farthest |
| [00:30.17] |
where the sun rises in the east and sets in the west |
| [00:33.57] |
I must confess the waves here look not the same |
| [00:36.61] |
the sounds emanating always changing |
| [00:39.55] |
with the weather the architecture |
| [00:42.01] |
blended with the background a book unbound |
| [00:44.89] |
rough on the edges like a worn blade centuries old |
| [00:48.07] |
battle tested a thousand fold |
| [00:50.84] |
I can see it in the eyes of the children |
| [00:53.43] |
they still haunt me to come back until then |
| [00:56.20] |
I sincerely hope to do justice |
| [00:59.05] |
to introduce and more than reminisce |
| [01:01.50] |
a place my heart yearns for upon return |
| [01:04.56] |
may every year new sets of eyes learn |
| [01:07.02] |

picture story on a road show |
| [01:39.98] |
coming to a town near you for a social gathering |

villages catcher in the rice fields energies textures |
| [01:47.09] |
innocent smiles in fact it's infectious |
| [01:49.76] |
in every prefecture it's effective |
| [01:52.21] |
a way to communicate |
| [01:53.95] |
break down the barrier linguistic |
| [01:55.96] |
don't get it twisted |
| [01:57.22] |
straight as an arrow on a bow in case you missed it |
| [02:00.55] |
bamboo shoots towards the gifted |
| [02:02.96] |
gods in the heavens and gods on earth |
| [02:05.76] |
walking amongst us as winds and the dirt |
| [02:08.62] |
ashes to ashes and dust to dust |
| [02:11.26] |
why my mind is awake from dawn to dusk |
| [02:14.12] |
