#firstsunrise — Public Fediverse posts

Wrapping up my New Year’s coverage with this set from a couple of years ago, taken somewhere along the Seto Inland Sea in Okayama Prefecture, on the first morning of the New Year. The first sunrise of the New Year is called "hatsuhinode”, and if you make a wish whilst watching the sun come up, it is believed that the Gods will grant it for you.

First mosses, from the deep they crept,
Crawling from brine, up a beach sea-swept.

They ascend, to the land unknown,
Bringing oxygen, atmosphere to sow.

Over ages, the bryophytes evolve,
Spreading green far across the hills and groves.

Gone are those days of ancient lore,
When moss held dominion o'er Earth's floor.
