A Buddha's Eternal Moment Poem by Eric Cockrell
A Buddha's Eternal Moment
one lone rose
opened by the sun,
the faint memory of rain,
and the dark damp earth.
reaching to the sky,
petals yearning, at peace...
then, without regret,
wilting back into nothingness...
and no one saw!

beautiful, beautifully written, Buddha always reminds me of the Lotus. 10+ Caught for a time in foul swamp [Purity] I perceive the luminous lotus. Pure remote within its environs. (The Lotus retains an untouchable purity) .
