in the silence of a spring morning
I walked along the shrine's trail
the pillars made of vermilion red
I ask the gods to lead me to the
answer I have been searching
for in so many years
as I approach the end of the trail
the answer came to me
like a soft wind from the East
and I knew what I needed to do
