THREE OLD MONK POEMS (287)
HOW MANY
How many languages can you speak
when you can't speak this one,
the old monk asked his silent student.
~
DO YOU WANT
Do you want to
die fast or
die slowly?
The answer
will tell you
how to live,
the old monk said.
~
WE LIKE
We like the rain,
we like the sun --
everything
in proportion,
the old monk said.
