being

compassion for all
is the single solution
to everything

having

to have compassion
one must be boundless
not an easy task

doing

to reach compassion
realise the lie of 'other'
all then falls in place

Summers haunting melody
that awakens
the butterflies,
calling them to join
the dance
in their silent song
of praise to God.

My word, Allan, deep indeed. Very Buddhist. Like it lots! I shall now search for the flower within, which is also the flower of the universe.

allan-
   Really beautiful thoughts.
   If more people lived by these
   wise words, the world would be
   a much brighter place.

   Thanks for sharing this.

Allan,

Well written and well said. Every once in a while I find a posting which needs to be kept in my personal journal. Yours will be added to the collection.

Best Regards,
