  "The Winter Sea" by Kim Nam Jo Author's Profile By Kim Nam Jo on Apr 20 2015 20:21:36 Vol.27 Spring 2015   Selected Poems of Kim Namjo Kim Nam Jo David R. McCann and Hyunjae Yee Sallee Cornell East Asia Series 1993 140pp. 0939657058     I went out to the winter sea, but the birds of unknown species, those I longed to see, had died and were gone. I tried to think of you, but in the biting sea wind the truth itself turned to tears and froze. The flames of emptiness set fire to furrows on the water. Time as always is what teaches me. I stood by the winter sea, nodding. The days remaining may be few, but I wish for the soul in which the door to the even more heated prayer is opened after my prayer. The days remaining may be few, but I have gone to the winter sea, I have seen where the waters of bitter endurance form the pillar of the ocean’s deep. pp. 36 - 37   Twitter Facebook Google Email .
