POST # 504
PUKA'S FINAL HEIST OF MY READING GLASSESThere is a young bonehead named Puka,
Whose barking near drove me quite cuka.
Yet in spite of the noise,
She displayed so much poise,
That she helped me re-focus on dukkha.*
*noun Buddhism.
the first of the Four Noble Truths, that all human experience is transient and that suffering results from excessive desire and attachment.
grateful for every bark (and breath),
Paul
The Thoughtful Wanderer
PS. A special thanks to Benjamin the Donkey, king of the limerick.
