Living in the Mountain on an Autumn Night
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
After fresh rain on the empty mountain
comes evening and the cold of autumn. The full moon burns through the pines. A brook transparent over the stones. Bamboo trees crackle as washerwomen go home and lotus flowers sway as fisherman's boat slips downriver. Though the fresh smell of grass is gone, a prince is happy in these hills.
