han shan is a name given to a chinese writer of poems who may or may not have been one writer may have been many writers may not have existed at all
han shan
there is tranquility
to be found in the writings of han shan
his words bring images of cloud-shrouded mountains
of clear and cold streams
tumbling down those mountainsides
his writes of his home in a cave high up on the mountain
of the difficulty in getting there
of visitors who occasionally seek him out for his wisdom
of the tea he brews and serves to them
of his quiet contemplative life
of the world he left behind of the misdeeds he sees
when he comes off the mountain
of the inner peace which is within all of us which is there for the asking
but all i see is loneliness
