Read the following poems carefully and answer the questions that follow: |
That's What She Said (Or He) |
I wish you. Friend, |
The finest thing |
That I can wish for you - |
Not health, nor wealth, |
Nor luck, but just |
A spirit of bamboo. |
Bend with the wind |
And thus survive, |
Though storms may flatten you. |
Weep not at fate, |
But spring erect |
As bamboo thickets do. |
Though knives of hate |
May cut away |
Your hopes of dreams come true, |
From roots of faith |
Put out your shoots |
And grow your dreams anew. |
Wealth may be lost, |
And health may fade, |
Yet you'll be wise and true |
If you can bend |
And you can grow |
With spirit of bamboo! |
- Helene Grouse |
