This latest poem was published in my blog, Wonkywizard:

Sonorous through crevices and caves, the missing tiger roar’d;
We mounted, without any marshal art , up the heavenly tour.
Peeped at narrow light aperture, but no goddess took bath.
The bodhisattva at the peak forbade our ascending path.
At the foothills, arhat tea and rocky fungus, were on promote;
Six bushes of imperial red robe on cliff were cutthroat.
A six-seater bamboo raft rowed down from upstream;
Gorgeous gorges, turns and twists, meandered in daydreams.
Calligraphy competed with misty rocky formation in bliss;
The hanging coffin reminded earthly souls what was missed.


Wuyi, name of mountain is homophonic with marshal art.
Please look at scenic pictures together with the verses.
Life meanders in 9 turns and 18 twist, up and down stream in a raft.
Witness peaks and valleys, nature and nurture,
And the hanging coffin as a reminder before looking up at heaven.
“Tie Lou Han (Iron Arahant), fermented red tea.
Fermented dark red oolong tea for emperors, now for leaders.
These coffins were cantilevered out on wooden planks and partially hidden
inside rock enclave. There were 3750 years old.
