My Retreat at Mount Zhongnan
分类: 英语诗歌
My heart in middle age found the Way.
And I came to dwell at the foot of this mountain.
When the spirit moves, I wander alone
Amid beauty that is all for me……
I will walk till the water checks my path,
Then sit and watch the rising clouds ——
And some day meet an old wood-cutter
And talk and laugh and never return.
