The Stone Buddha Poem by Arti Chopra

So peacefully sits
the stone Buddha
Deep in meditation,
Among the green money plant,
Tendrils that hang down caressingly,
on either side
Polished a shining green,
By the life giving elixir,
The water flowing down softly,
Playing a divine musical sound
That soothens my soul
All my cares and worries submerged
In the softly flowing water
My happiness sings along
With the musical tinkling sound,
And I think,
I can sit here forever,
Just drown myself in the serenity
That I derive
From looking at
THE BUDDHA
