In Kyoto's hush, where silence grows,

A silver dream in stillness glows.

Though never clad in gleaming sheen,

It holds the soul of what has been.

 

The shogun's sigh, the twilight air,

A villa born of quiet care.

Stone paths meander, mosses spread,

Where every leaf and thought is led.

 

No gold adorns its wooden grace,

Yet time has kissed this sacred place.

Reflections dance in garden sand,

Drawn by the rake, a mindful hand.

 

A pond, a pine, a moonlit trace,

All speaking in their silent place.

Wabi and sabi gently blend—

Where beauty lives, and thoughts transcend.

 

Ginkaku-ji, your name may lie,

Yet truth resides where spirits sigh.

A temple not of silver bright—

But of still hearts and inward light.

 

Shot in- Ginkaku-ji, or the Silver Pavilion, is a serene Zen temple nestled in Kyoto, Japan
