Focal Point
A child playing under the hot sun
Holding a small magnifying glass
A few inches above a small piece of paper
Awaits patiently for the paper to alight
The spark generated at last
Lights a sparkling impression
On the child's mind
The child growing up
Will share nature's Life force
And discover the art of focusing
Nature's beauty
The child now grown up sitting in a hall
Listens to the Master speaking
On one mind concentration
On mindfulness of the name
Amitabha
Now an adult
The child sees flashes of the past
Making connections with childhood playtime discoveries
And the love of photography
Suddenly, the truth is revealed
The power of a focused mind
Creates a miracle of a special kind
Releasing one from the forces that bind
Transcending endless cycles of death and life
Liberating minds
Liberating all minds
