“Too beautiful…”
There are times when that’s the only thing you can say.
It’s the same with “too delicious” or “too happy.”
Not exactly refined expressions, perhaps,
but when something effortlessly leaps far beyond what you had imagined,
you can’t help but blurt out, “Ah… I’m sorry.”
Maybe that “too” comes out as a kind of honest surrender?
a sign that your heart just can’t contain it all.
And this autumn foliage was exactly that.
I give up.
You win. Go ahead, take it all.
I’ll just ride my bicycle quietly along the edge of your overwhelming beauty.
Ah… Japan’s autumn colors are truly magnificent.
