a placid smile
flows like a lake
calm-drawn for
a mile
across the buddha’s
brow,
unseen,
where no wrinkles made,
he is,
full of Tao
no thoughts to rouse
him
from spirit’s house 🏡

Nice poem Ka. It sounds like you’re in a buddha space. 🙂
Fortunately, yes! 🙂 Thank you, Brad The poem sort of wanted to be written, you know?
Yay!
Oh hi! Thanks for the mention! I like that you incorporated an emoji house into your poem ❤
Very clever with the visual! I like the lake-line equated with a smile. 🙂
poetically peaceful, Ka!
i almost saw myself calmly
paddling on that lake 🙂
