Coconut Palm Poem by Saiom Shriver

Coconut Palm



Sweet coconut palm
with such giving palms..
His leaves are his psalms
and coconuts his alms..
In one palm gesture
he bequeaths....
the shell-dish
..the pulp meal
and the inner sun..
as
external balm
from his inner calm.
*
(to the Mayasandra family
which has always continued
the chain of giving
of their palm trees.)
(My teacher says the coconut {and its lauric acid} are conducive to
meditation)
