you keep us with a famous story of him walk towards in the memory lane melancholy tune of windbells in Yoshiwara, still I breathe the cool breeze there and I sniff the fragrance of death from isolated graveyards I would like to drown in Sumida -kawa like Dazai Ozamu san who killed himself by drowning in the lakeTamagawa at Inokashira park.

Your title is very sad and expressive. I would guess that you go to Japan in your mind quite often. Bittersweet and very beautiful, my friend. As always, Sandra

We are all birds in guilded cages of life's walk in time before we meet with makers in the skies. A great ten in writing kind sir. God bless all poets-MJG.

Hi Nimal, My mother is Japanese, she was born in Hiroshima. My sister and brother were born there too. I have not gone to Japan, but I do look on the website. My sister would like me to go with me next year. I would like to drag my mother with us. Then she can translate (ha ha) Beautiful dedication to your friends. The poem was excellent. Take care.

A bird has wings in a strom, it must just find the flow of least torment until the storm calms. A good and sad write Nimal.
