| Poetry with a Buddhist Theme ~ by Harley White

       The poems are listed more or less chronologically, so as to show the 
	   evolution and progression of my understanding of the enlightenment of 
	   Nichiren Daishōnin through my longstanding practice of his universal, 
	   essential teaching of Nam Myōhō Renge Kyō.  It is my wish that 
	   others will be inspired and encouraged by these creative endeavors of 
	   mine as well.  The poems are offered freely for all to read, share, and 
	   hopefully enjoy.
