Poem, Like A Chinese Painting

Poem, like a
Chinese painting,
cloud mist over
high mountain top,
form of rock
like yin and yang,
dark brush strokes
tree and bush
billowing feathery
the air void
on craggy slope,
rushing waterfalls
flowing downslope,
a placid lake
surrounded by
stony shores
the peaceful valley,
bridge over water
draining to south,
and west,
stark and
simple curving
lines
to
peaceful plain
of emptiness void.

Tiny man,
fishing,
contemplative
the little bridge.

My soul, restored.

I wrote my first poem in 1994. Very youthful indeed.

Posting w/ permission from the ladyfare? Whose wearing the pants?

That's 'who's,' Cran. If you're going to make fun of da pants-wearing women, at least get it right.

That poem was written before I turned 11 - and I hadn't written my first poem for another six years...in case you weren't feeling old enough
