Shiroi ki
'Shiroi ki' translates to the words white trees in Japanese. The following is a poem that fits the feeling I am trying to convey to the viewer....." Wrapped in a blanket against the cold night. Like a paper-wasps' nest in a black-and-white birch tree dusted with snow;Like the wick of a hundred-times-dipped beeswax candle, awaiting the flame." ~Unknown
