In the moon light


“Thought of thousand things

fill me with melancholy

as I gaze upon the moon,

but autumn`s dejection

comes not to me alone.”

By Oue senri

Peter macMillan

This melancholy lyric poem is ”百人一首“

(One Hundred Poets One Poem Each)

It`s very old collection of Japanese poem.

But now we are still familiar with it as the card game.

Reciter read these poems lyricaly as singing a song.

The players compete to get the picture cards.

I love the moon poems.

So, I do my best to get moon cards without romantic mood.

There are 12 “月moon” cards

20"×14"

silk kimono cloths,

piece work, hand quilt ,embroidery

Togs; Gallery1-3 Mikiko Takase
