Dear all,
Have a great Sunday and a wonderful week ahead. Two weeks ago I created a video for Echoes Lost in Stars by PS Conway. Our beloved Japanese painter Hikari watched the video and was inspired by one of the images I used. She painted for me a superb piece that she entitled “Japanese White Eye.” I am beyond grateful to her for her love, generosity, and talent. I am deeply humbled by her gesture. So I wrote a poem for her entitled Japanese White Eye.
I hope you enjoy the painting and the poem.
Japanese White Eye by Hikari
To Hikari – Japanese White Eye – poem by Gabriela Marie Milton
An angel placed a fan in your soft hands
The sighs of clouds poured talent in your soul
Beneath your pale and weightless fingers
Your paintings dream the sweetness of Sakura
The stillness of washitsu (和室) in the daylight
Still lingers on your face and on your dress.
Show me the hill on which spring beauties cry
and take me to the silence of the Japanese White Eye.
