THREE OLD MONK POEMS (137)
THE GRASSES KNOW
The grasses know
what the grasses know
and that is enough
for the mountain,
the old monk says.
~
HE DOESN'T
He doesn't always know
what he's going to say
but he goes ahead and
says it, the old monk.
~
POETRY
Poetry -- it starts
when it wants
and you don't
tell it to stop,
the old monk says.
