Impressions from Japan – A Poetry Collection
Mitchell Fujimoto (author)
Step into a world of fleeting beauty and quiet moments with Impressions from Japan, a collection of poetry inspired by the landscapes, traditions, and emotions woven into the heart of Japan. From the delicate blush of cherry blossoms to the quiet strength of ancient temples, each poem captures a glimpse of life’s ephemeral nature, much like an ink stroke on rice paper.Blending traditional influences with modern sensibilities, this collection invites you to experience Japan through the lens of poetry—where every season whispers a story, and every verse lingers like an echo of the past. Whether you are drawn to the elegance of haiku, the depth of free verse, or the nostalgia of distant travels, Impressions from Japan is a journey of words and wonder.Download a sample
