Morning Moon
"Things that are always there, but if we tend to overlook if we are not conscious of them."
I think the morning moon is one such view.
Once you notice its beauty, you will develop eyes that can always find it.
In this way, we color the world and the scenery we see every day.
Every day, I nurture my heart one by one.
Misako MAEGAKI
