Background

A description of the experience
From the Columbia Anthology of Traditional Korean Poetry – edited by Peter Lee
Night Rain on the Rivers Hsiao and Hsiang
A stretch of blue water between the shores in autumn;
The wind sweeps light rain over a boat coming back.
As the boat is moored at night near the bamboos,
Each leaf rustles coldly, awakening sorrow.
