THREE OLD MONK POEMS (131)
THE WAY IT BREAKS
The way it breaks is
the way it breaks,
the old monk said,
whether you're talking
about a storm,
a walking stick, or
a line of poetry.
~
SOMETIMES / SHADOWS
Sometimes
shadows
on the wall
is all
the candle
has to say
the old monk said.
~
THE LEAST YOU CAN DO
The least you can do
is to try not to undo
what God has done,
the old monk said.
