Restoring compassion


Each morning we return again 
To kneel at the foot of the bodhi tree, 
Emptying our hearts and minds 
And breathing in compassion, 
Inviting it to take root and flow 
Like healing sap, through veins 
And out to limbs, til every cell’s awash 
In the longing to bear fruit 
And cast a shade of love on all we meet.
