Poem: Bowing

mb38-Bowing How wonderful, The honor and privilege To bow To your teacher, Loved one, friend, Even a stranger Or an enemy. To the Buddha-to-be Within each one. With palms together, As if holding a flower That is bending toward them, As you look into their eyes To their soul To become one.
