My love for Japan never went away / by Mirena Rhee

I miss the straight lines of the wooden floors I miss the patterns of tatami I miss the lush greens I miss the kind people I miss the crowds in Shinjuku and harajuku in Tokyo I miss the quiet power of the Zen gardens in Kyoto I miss the quirkiness of pachinko parlors I miss eating sushi with construction workers in asakusa I miss the wooded hills of arashyama.
