THREE OLD MONK POEMS (391) 


IT TAKES ALL

It takes all night
for the stars to

convince themselves
of morning,

the old monk said.

~

IT WILL NEVER

It will never
be everything

you want it
to be. That's

why you start
with simple things,

the old monk said.

~

HOW BIG

How big
does a cat

have to be
to not be

a house cat?
As big as

a barn?
the old monk asked.
