A Letter from Korea

I\'m writing you this letter from Korea.
Sending you a few words from the summit
of the sacred mountain where the sun 
is rising.
A flock of lazzy clouds are still  floating
in no hurry to cross the China sea.
Immaculate hibiscus flowers blossom 
like a thousand schools vying for grace
filling souls with the serenity 
of a calm spring morning.
I\'m writing you this letter,
lemon and jasmin fragrant.
On the other side of the earth 
you\"re on your way 
to the realm of  dreams
I bow to the new dawn.
Yin and Yang become one.
But I hear the gong 
calling me back to the temple...
