Vibrant spring water
Goodness of dreams heaven sent
When parched lips moistened

Canopy of love
Blessings of Bodhi tree for
Enlightened living

For Chev's CARPE DIEM #390 Konsenji

    When in need of thirst sure from it love would burst

    Many of us take water for granted, not realising that just a sip would be Heaven for so many,

      Apparently it was while seated under the Bodhi tree one day that Lord Buddha received his enlightenment.
