Komorebi – The light that Breathes

They paint the skies – random
strokes of brush, with
spaces left for the sun to
get a glimpse of its loved one.
They sway, to the beat of
the winds – sometimes
closing in and then parting,
for the sun to kiss its beloved.
They tell us stories of the
world they see, from the skies
above, from the stars they touch.
The sunlight casts its spell.
Komorebi – the sunlight seeps
through the foliage dark,
casting shadows on the velvet green.
The forest bows in reverence.
( Komorebi – Japanese term to describe the sunlight that seeps in through the leaves )
