Sitting alone -- secluded bamboo grove:
I whistle or pluck my zither;
People don't know my deep forest;
Moon and I shine on each other.
Original in Simplified Chinese:
独坐幽篁里
弹琴复长啸
深林人不知
明月来相照
bats hang in bamboo —
blanket-wrapped in wings —
hang like their food, fruit.
a copse of bamboo
shades the mossy creek rocks,
deepening their green.
bamboo, young & supple,
looms over knurly and
stunted hardwoods
nestled amid bamboo, a stone Buddha sits: stone-mind / bamboo-mind
bamboo painted against white clouds is betrayed by a breeze
