| Li Po
(701-762 A.D) Li Po is perhaps one of the most well known Taoist poets. He was very close to the Confucian poet Tu-Fu, whom he influenced. |

"Calling on a Taoist Priest in Tai-t'ien Mountaoin but Failing to See Him" A dog barks amid the sound of water; Peach blossoms tinged by dew take on a deeper tone. In the dense woods at times I see deer; By the brook I hear no bells at noon. Wild bamboos divide the blue haze; Tumbling waterfalls hang from the green cliff. No one can tell me where you are, Saddened, I lean against the pines. |
