The Temple Of Fragrance Poem by Ho Xuan Huong
The Temple Of Fragrance
Rating: ★5.0
Who could have fashioned this marvel?
The mountain cracks into a wide, hollow cave.
Pious Buddhists struggle to set foot inside,
others gaze at it tirelessly.
Drippings form a sweet streamlet,
as sailors on incoming junks bend their heads.
City folk also flock to these springs and woods.
Clever, indeed, the Old Man in Heaven!

Wonderful poem. I mostly see double meaning in her poems.
