The first sunrise
Some years ago
I would come to the beach to surf
Every day around sunrise
As I had no mobile, newspaper, TV nor internet
Once I realized it was the New Year’s Day
To see the beach totally different from it was in normal days – there were lots of people there
Next day, the beach was quiet as usual.
Japanese do come out to see the rising sun
To admire it
Even in this modern days
They gather together
To view the sun rising for the first time in the year
That’s the Japanese; such a lovely people
