In Tohoku Area

 

Great nourishment from ancient times.
Wind was pleasant here.

People’s souls and hearts were saved and nursed.
Now, passion full of grudge was wiped away
And dissolved into a vast space.

As I opened my eyes
A marvelous blue wind was envisioned
Right in front of my face.
It was brilliantly shining and
Transforming our world into a completely new one.

Then its color became purple and that night wind
Manifested an elegant elapse of time.

Among brilliantly shining stars
One particularly big one addressed me and instructed me.
That light was present now, so was our hope for a glorious future.

To a flower of wind.

I would like to express my deepest gratitude to everybody as through internet we could successfully transmit live the Idaki Shin concert. I envisioned that a hole became open in the thick wall of darkness. All of a sudden the same special thing was blown as the one I had experienced in a desert when I wrote my poem entitled “Wind Flowers”. This was about a boy who were about to die in a desert from bloodshed and a poem delivered to him by a Goddess who lamented his life saying that his blood was like flowers in a desert. The special desert wind brought me a message saying that sad human history that has sacrificed numerous lives of people was about to end. I was filled with hope as Japan and Middle East countries were firmly connected by glorious light and I would move forwards from today in Tohoku so that this light of hope would prevail all over the world.
