Living In The Summer Mountains
I have moved to this home of immortalsWild shrubs bloom everywhere
In the front gardens, trees
Spread their branches for clothes racks
I sit on a mat and float wine cups
In the cool spring
Beyond the window railing
A hidden path leads away
Into the dense bamboo grove
In a gauze dress
I read among my disordered pile of books
I take a leisurely ride
In the painted boat
And chant poems to the moon
I drift at ease, for I know
The soft wind will blow me home.
