Dedications and Acknowledgments

Snowy accents on a lion’s head. Summer visitors enter a noren-curtained entrance for a tea ceremony. A black- lacquered window frames the glorious autumn scenery of Kyoto. Traffic-streaked lights shimmer below the World Heritage pagoda of Toji Temple. Too good a chance to pass up, a visitor attempts to capture a temple’s resident tabby. A lusciously glazed tea bowl is presented to a guest.
