THREE OLD MONK POEMS (236)
LOOK ABOUT
Look about --
there are poems
on the mountain,
the old monk said.

GOING TO SLEEP
Going to sleep is like
turning off the stars,
the old monk thought
as he went good-night,
or like turning them on.
~
ANYONE WHO
Anyone who wants to
can learn to do it
except for the part
about how to get down --
that takes practice,
the old monk said.
