The Rose-Cave on Tung Shan

The Rose-Cave on Tung Shan

After Li Po

By the Cave on the Mountain how oft have the roses blown,
How oft have the silver clouds o’er the lonely mountain flown,
And no one known,
Since I came to the Cave on Tung Shan, years ago?

It is all so lone, if the Moon should steal from the sky,
And, scarfed in a floating mist, to the Cave of the Roses hie,
To whom, or why
She came to the Cave on Tung Shan, none would know!

The Theosophical Path, June 1920
