moonlight rests softly
beyond the shoji doors,
gathering the night around them.

three generations sit close,
sharing tea,
sharing warmth.

to “meet” is not only
to face one another.

it is to share breath,
to exchange silence,
to feel the same moment.

distance dissolves here—
time folds inward,
and hearts settle together.

the kanji “会” speaks of encounter—
not by chance,
but by connection.
