I went to bed early last night only to awake around 1:30 A.M. this morning. Alert, I read a slim volume of poems by the classic Chinese poets Li Po and Tu Fu.
And then this.....a new poem.
MIRACLE
I awoke in the middle of a night
too quiet for sleep.
The three-quarters moon revealing
a lonely, indifferent world
Where only last night the bitter wind set
the chimes to dancing with a raucous joy!
Who's to say what miracle
tomorrow may bring?
