I tell you, don’t adore your coat of gold brocade.
I tell you, adore the short spell of youth.
When the bloom is ready it must be plucked.
Don’t wait till flowers drop and break the empty twig.

In Kate's World
So much wisdom in so few words…
She does hit it on the head, doesn’t she?
Absolutely!
Excellent–love it.
She was the only female poet included in the famous T’ang Dynasty collection of poets. Not much, though, is known of her later life but I think this poem tells us all we need to know.
Interesting!
