I remember Buckley as he would explore the upper regions of the attic room where I lived with Dexter, his black canine counterpart and fellow Zen four-legged dharma seeker. I'm lighting an incense stick for Buckley tonight and chanting for his safe journey to Summer-land. There he will find his old friend Dexter waiting for him, and together they may set up shop and play and nap and continue the merry romp. Gassho.
