Upon Facing Death Poem by Michio Mado

Upon Facing Death

Rating: 4.0


Dear God,
I thank you
for letting me,
a scrawny spoon,
scoop from the ocean just once
The ocean
was beautiful
Carefully holding
this drop of
glorious sunset
I will come
to make an offering
to you

Translation: Takako Lento

This small poem brings to fore not only the exquisite beauty of nature but also the same having been possible by the divine forces. Thanks.
