Evening Bell of Mii-dera
I hear the sound from behind my closed eyelids, bereft of their light.
Far away.
Far away.
So far away, and out of reach.
I think of the person ringing the bell.
-----I don't know anything.
What kind of clothes are they wearing?
Who are they with?
How has their day been?
What are they thinking right now?
Are they just going through a daily routine, or do they ring the bell while thinking of someone who isn't with them?
But still, they ring the bell.
At least I know that they are well enough to do that.
Hearing the sound of the bell, the mother's lips relax in relief.
It is the Evening Bell of Mii-dera.
Connecting the Snake Mother and her child, a single, distant, and truly resonant love.
