Zen poems: most of them are written by Buddhist monks, and most of them are poems about life. Different from common poems, Zen poems are simple and straightforward, which is easy to understand, but behind these seemingly simple words are the feelings of life and people.
things are impermanent, and there is no point in eternity
flowers bloom in the morning, but trees are still empty at dusk.
if flowers are compared with human affairs, flowers are together with human affairs.
