Appearing like dew,
vanishing like dew-
such is my life.
Even Naniwa's splendour
is a dream within a dream.
露と落ち露と消えにし我が身かな浪速のことも夢のまた夢
-Death poem of Toyotomi Hideyoshi (豊臣秀吉 1537-1598).

For Hanatōro around 2400 lanterns would stretch from Shōren-in (青蓮院) to Kiyomizu-dera (清水寺), via Maruyama Park (円山公園-where there are displays of ikebana 生け花), Kōdai-ji (高台寺), Ninnenzaka (二年坂) and Sannenzaka (三年坂).

🍁🥊A LITTLE NIGHT LIGHT💡✨

'Tis the season...

the more night falls
the more autumnal
the mountain
夜に入れば入程秋の山辺哉
-Kobayashi Issa (小林一茶), 1814.
