Kim Shi Sup

Kim Shi Sup (1435-1493) was a Taoist Korean poet. He was a learned man well, versed in literature. He was very talented and produced many poetic and prose works.

He was very loyal to the king and when he died there was a government effort to find and preserve all of his works which numbers around 30 volumes. Below is an example of his poetry:

:Do not sweep the fallen leaves,:For they are pleasant to hear on clear nights:In the wind, they rustle, as if sighing;:In the moonlight, their shadows flutter.:They knock on the window to wake a traveler;:Covering stairs, they hide moss.:Sad, the sight of them getting wet in the rain;:Let them wither away deep in the mountains.
