Three Poems For the Price of One Sale Ends Soon

Three times Nero sang Three times the violins played Three times I traveled far The fourth time I wrote three poems A Tree Autumn A lonely tree Leaves have all fallen A tree with tears One for each year A thousand years Winter rides upon the wind A time when all sadness sleeps In the coldness this tree still weeps The tree of life In sadness sleeps A Child Autumn A lonely child He walks in autumn’s breeze And dreams as all infants do A thousand dreams for every thought He wanders absently in the park He hopes for a life of no tears and love He offers a smile, but walks in loneliness fear In the distance, a tree, a man beneath He knew the smile was for all three Buddha's Autumn Buddha sat under a tree All the leaves have fallen A tree with tears A tear fell upon Buddha’s head A raindrop from the heavens he thought From deep in contemplations A smile appeared A child in the park, happened by Lost in lonely dreams He saw a man under a tree, Smiling An OmbuTree is wise A child is innocent A man chooses to smile
