kirei ni tsukurowa re te iru
When he found her
she was lost
and so very broken ..
Yet she
wanted him to mend
her badly ..
Indeed, so much she
begged him
and that my friend is
precisely
what he did, with so
much care
and love and such
attention, plus
half a dozen lengths
of finest
and most precious
golden thread ..
Then when
she was whole again
and more
beautiful than ever ..
She did lay
before him naked for
the first time
and agreed to take her
saviours name
kiseki no souzou mono ..

Did try Guv, honestly. All I got was involved instructions re tense etc (never dun that in English, let alone Japanese) plus an offer to fly me to Japan tout suite. And that ain't Japanese either, but it's the best I can do to sound sophisticated.
No worries .. try to relax more, UR 2 tense 😎👍
Broken items of china and glass can be restored and value can be added to them. Where they are broken, they can be repaired and gold powder or leaf can be worked into the flaws. This is a Japanese art. In your poem, I imagined a shattered bowl put together again and restored to its former beauty. What a lovely idea. I watched a video. Fascinating Neville.
A bit kinder than Botox eh? Happy Sunday.

Thank you so much for calling Cassie, Sunday just wouldn't be the same without you & one of these Chuck 🍷
Back at you Neville 🍷
Bit of French there?! Fido will translate it. lol.
Lettuce leaf the guineapig to his own de vices mon amies .. Bit off more than you can chew why don'tcha Stevie 🐀
"Let's make it neatly", according to translation, I was interested. I love the sentiment of this poem, of caring so much for another, to take them to heart and make them whole, seeing something wonderful in them. Beautiful my friend!!
I have written many times before about the art of kintsugi .. in my opinion, the philosophy that underpins and surrounds it is near sacred ..
I like the idea of making the broken whole again and even more beautiful than its original form ..
Thank you for calling in on this particular little scribble of mine Bella, I really am most grateful .. Neville
Dear Nev, you have given me something new to explore in kintsugi. Thank you!
A wonderful tale of what must surely be a Japanese legend. I don't know of such a legend. The only connection I could see is their art called Kintsugi, where they take broken ceramics and repair them with lacquer and gold pigment, such that the finished repair work looks like threads on the object. Thus, restoring its beauty. Almost like a miracle. - Phil A.
You are indeed closest yet Phil ... Give that guy a cigar on me .. and yes again, The maker of Miracles .. Neville
Sounds to me a Knight in shining armour, helping someone back to their best is not an easy task and then some. Beautiful to know.
Both me and these words of mine appreciate your company Ms. T .. Neville
I hope that this was real Neville and not a miracle that you imagined.
Andy
A true gentleman neva tells, does one, but rather leaves it to those who might visit from time to time, to form their own opinion .. I only feel obliged to thank those who pass by and leave their mark behind ..
Cheers Andy .. Neville
