A favorite poem

A poem by Kuan Tao-Sheng (I've lost the information on who translated this one)

Take a lump of clay
Wet it, pat it,
Make a statue of you
And a statue of me.

Then shatter them, clatter them,
Add some water,
And break them and mold them
Into a statue of you
And a statue of me.

Then in mine, there are bits of you
And in you there are bits of me
Nothing ever shall keep us apart.
