The Song of the Blade that Slits the Air

In dawn-lit bloom where peach hues flare,
A maiden stands with midnight hair;
Her katana gleams in morning’s glare—
A silver hymn that cleaves the air.

Sakura petals stitch her gown,
Soft pinks that drift yet won’t fall down;
Their fragrant dance in spirals round
Is hushed when tempered steel is found.

Mount Fuji’s crown of ghost-white snow
Looks on the seas that surge below;
Each crashing crest, in indigo,
Repeats the rhythm of her flow.

The crimson sun, a watchful drum,
Beats out a pulse—ta-ta, ta-tum—
That bids the warrior’s will become
A silent storm no foe outruns.

With every swing, with every dare,
She parts the wave, divides despair;
A whispered song in frosted air
Declares: the blade, the brave, the flare.

And though the world may quake and cry,
Though darkened clouds may flood the sky,
Her steel will sing, her soul will fly—
A soaring note that can’t but rise.

So mark the place where spirits share
The hush before the hawk’s swift tear;
There lives the song beyond compare—
The blade that sings and splits the air.
