THREE OLD MONK POEMS (229)
I COULD WRITE
I could write a whole book
about the emptiness of your reply,
the old told his student.
~
IF YOU CAN'T
If I can't see
the other bank
of the river,
is this the ocean,
the old monk asked.
~
SHE WHO FLIES
She who flies
has no fear,
like angels,
the old monk said.
