Beneath the Bodhi Tree
The branches here leave no shadows where doubt can creep infiltrating your conciousness; reicinirating your grief Here, your inner consiousness makes up its mind Your soul less curious, your mind is at ease Remember what you came here for Beneath the Bodhi tree...

The Bodhi Tree I am a Bodhi Tree with branches reaching for the sky. My cooling shade entreats a song, a lovely lullaby. My roots run deep above and below the blessed ground Where prayerful spirit looms my ancient trunk is found. Siddhartha Gautama became Buddha beneath my tree.

Under the Bodhi Tree
for Neil on his birthday is where we begin our quest, seeking enlightenment, four revelers on a merry ferry ride, windows down to a watery wind, cold in winter, gentle in July on this occasion of a 95th year of celebration: fruitful, loving, gift-giving from a man of long tenure, a span of years he shared with us: turned- round...
