Poetry & Reflections

Du Yao (Both Yao-like)

At the center of the heart, joy and ease; Yao's heaven and Shun's bright days

May I ask you now, a little wandering immortal—all is in the void and misty realm.

Yao and Shun are gone, and only ink-men remain;

the canons and graves are hard to find among the cold mountains.
