My dear followers,
As another week gently draws to its close, I want to pause and wish each of you a truly fabulous weekend. May these days be filled with the gentle beauty of quiet moments, the laughter of friends, and the comfort of creative inspiration.
Haiku by Gabriela Marie Milton
I enter your soft dreams,
your lips linger, dew-kissed night,
silence breathes between.
Update: Lullscapes in Light and Shadow
I am delighted to share an update on Naoki Kimura’s remarkable fine art photography and poetry, Lullscapes in Light and Shadow, published by Literary Revelations. The album is still a #1 bestseller in Japan, a Top Release, and a bestseller in the USA. This splendid collection weaves delicate imagery and profound emotion into every line, exploring the interplay between illumination and obscurity in both poetry and fine art photography. Naoki Kimura’s work truly invites readers to wander through landscapes of dream and memory, where each poem is a moment of quiet discovery.
Thank you to everyone who has supported the book. Your enthusiasm and encouragement mean the world, and it is heartwarming to see Lullscapes in Light and Shadow finding its way to readers across the globe.
- Thank you, USA!
- Thank you, Japan!
- Thank you, UK!
- Thank you, Canada!
Your love of literature is what keeps stories alive and growing. I am deeply grateful to everyone who has purchased and read the book. May this weekend bring you peace, inspiration, and the gentle glow of words well loved.
For you a poem from Naoki’s album:
Somewhere between heartbeats and breath,
golden whispers coil in stillness,
each filament a promise
that even silence
can wear its own light.
–Naoki Kimura

The featured photo also belongs to Naoki Kimura and it is included in the album.
With warmest thanks and best wishes for the days ahead!
