Speaking Through the Opening: Allowing Your Life to Be Your Poem, by Eric Ashford

The Lord Buddha
once gave a silent flower sermon.

I should like to have been
the peace of that silence he held up to speak of.

I should have liked
to have been a flower in the hand of the Lord.

And just once

have said myself

perfectly.
