The Dali Lama and Jazz Fest

A blended duet.
Peace through breath.
Both exhaled through instruments:
One man made;
The other God made.

Yes, they meld in New Orleans!
Just like coffee and chicory;
Red beans and rice,
Peaceful harmonics.
Both eliciting smiles,
Both deeply satisfying:
A sense of
Hope, renewal and revival,
Resilience!
