“Seated alone by shadowy bamboos,I strum my lyre and laugh aloud;None know that I am here, deep in the woods;Only the bright moon comes to shine on me.”
Wang Wei
“Watching wild landscapes I forget distanceand come to the water's edge.”

“Clear waters drift through the immensity of a tall forest.In front of me a huge river mouthreceives the long wind.Deep ripples hold white sandand white fish swimming as in a void.I sprawl on a big rock,billows nourishing my humble body.I gargle with water and wash my feet.A fisherman pauses out on the surf.So many fish long for bait. I lookonly to the east with its lotus leaves.”
