Narrative   ---   2024 December 19

Buddha meets ... that is strange, Announce the meet ... strange the more, Buddha meets ... not so strange, Announce misquote ... Buddha just wrote, Though history ... Buddha's story, Timing bit off ... historians scoff, What came first; egg or chicken ... what came post; begs a question, Christmas or Buddha ... Buddha or Christmas, It is neither ... here nor there, Ergo ... Therefore, Flip a coin, heads or tails ... make your choice, while coin sails, A guess is a guess ... my best is my best, Here goes nothing ... substance something, Buddha crosses time ... Christmas line a Cross Christmas Star o'er Bethlehem ... faraway came three wise men, Buddha is pleased with Christmas sight ... Buddha's lifetime records and write, The nativity scene ... Buddha cites how it beamed, Joseph and Virgin Mary, and baby Jesus makes three all the same ... Buddha scrolls down parchment that indicate advent that coined Christs' name, Idyllic pastoral scenes of shepherds and farm animals and three wise men bearing gifts from afar ... Buddha captures the highlights breaths exhale and inhale words repetitively transform plain and not Czar.

You've given us a different take in the contest. It sounds that Jesus and Buddha were both man, both want out to teach to the world about what is important in a pure spiritual life. I'm naive about Buddha religion so don't really know what to say. Enjoyed reading. Enjoy the holidays my friend

We were given a natural entity who was an asceticism individual living a frugal life of the 5th century, and considered to have been a philosopher. Christ initiated AD, ergo, my written poem aligns with that set of circumstances. I hope that you were enlightened, Eve, and mahalo for your visit. Aloha~William
