--P'ei Ti & Wang Wei (700-761 ) : Meng Wall Cove

		Below the ancient city's wall lies
		My thatched hut. In time I'll climb
		Those old walls in disrepair
		Where others now merely pass by.
		By this new home near the old city wall
		Ancient trees fringe weeping willows.
		Here anyone can begin again, but first
		The heart must be empty of sorrow.
