THREE OLD MONK POEMS (52) 


YOU CAN ALWAYS

You can always
do what you want

until Dad says "It's
milking time, boys,"

the old monk said.

~

ALMOST ENOUGH

Almost enough
is when you want

to be careful,
the old monk said.

And then he did
something foolish.

How like him.

SOMETIMES IT'S NOT

Sometimes it's not the heat
but the smoke that kills you,
the old monk warned.
