Author profile

ISHINOHITO

A person who picks up and arranges stones.
Pick up stones in the sea, sometimes in the river.
Go on a journey in search of stones.
Looking at the stones I picked up
That light revives. I hear something.
Wonder, healing, and loneliness interweave
Memories of picking stones.
