Poetry & Reflections

Poem One

The wind soughs and rustles; one leaf tells of autumn

When poetry reaches the soundless, it enters the divine with subtle skill;

a single word already can cut off all dust.

Why ask again the Zen-studying guest?

Just recognize the free soul of mountain and forest.
