A quiet morning ...
[Topic: Behind the run down mountain temple
a Buddhist monk's retreat]
A quiet morning enters the old temple
the Sun begins to illuminate the tops of tall trees
a winding path leads to a secluded place
where a monk's dwelling hides among flora
when the mountain lights up, happy birds do their thing
like the deep clear pond his heart is void of desire
here the noise of society doesn't penetrate the silence
only the bell and the resonant stone are heard
