To flowers of winds
I was extremely grateful as together with our Lebanese friends through Internet video live streaming, we experienced the Idaki Shin concert, and I envisioned that a hole has penetrated a dark thick wall. Eventually I recalled a poem entitled “Wind flower” that I had created in the past, and it was about the sorrow of a goddess who delivered a poem to a boy who was about to die of bloodshed in a desert and wrote that it was like the blooming of a flower in a desert. I embraced great hope as wind from a desert has visited me and told me that the sad human history that has sacrificed numerous lives of people was about to end. Japan and Middle East were firmly connected by light. From today I would work in Tohoku so that our light of hope should reach the rest of the world.
