Before the mountain, Poem By :Myochi Roko & Sherry Chayat, 1990

Before the mountain, by the grace of nature
I was allowed to realize “Oh!I am only a child!”
tendered by spruce and birds.

I saw without my usual defenses
and endless thinking.

I know anything or everything
coming between me and creation.
