In the Mountains on a Summer Day – by Li Po (a poem)

LiPo_mountain

Gently I stir a white feather fan,
With open shirt sitting in a green wood.
I take off my cap and hang it on a jutting stone;
A wind from the pine-trees trickles on my bare head.

by Li Po, A.D. 701-762, translated by Arthur Waley.

Now go lift something heavy,
Nick Horton
