Tsura is the ninth doll greeting the sun in a series called 'Salute to the sun'.
THE BRIGHT FIELD
I have seen the sun break through
to illuminate a small field
for a while, and gone my way
and forgotten it. But that was the pearl
of great price, the one field that had
the treasure in it. I realise now
that I must give all that I love
to possess it. Life is not hurrying
on to a receding future, nor hankering after
an imagined past. it is the turning
aside like Moses to the miracle
of the lit bush, to a brightness
that seemed as transitory as your youth
once, but is the eternity that awaits you.
