For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.’’ Poetic Advice The famous Japanese poet, Basho. was ap proached by a young man of little talent. “I don’t know whether to be a doctor or a poet.” the young man said. Basho advised him to be a poet. A friend asked why and Basho replied.
