THREE OLD MONK POEMS (82) 


WE DREAM

We dream
because sleep alone
is not enough,
the old monk said.

~

I DON'T SAY MUCH

I don't say much
when I'm done talking.
Be like that,
the old monk told
his students.

~

YES, I'VE NOTICED

Yes, I've noticed,
the old monk said,
the younger they are,

the later they come home
the next morning.
