Feel the Peace
by Silent Lotus

When
The orchard
Of your dreams
No longer bears fruits
Listen to the blossom of silence
Hear the vastness of the still ocean
Feel the peace of no leaves in the breeze
Touch the freedom of no illusions
And see that your signature
Reveals not a face or a name
As the climax lacks thunder
For divine light is gentle
And the silence
Is pure
Hey, Carissa; great to "meet" you :)
Hello darlin',

Many thanks, and all set!
That would be good. Ahhhh, book clubbyness! CLUB!!!
Wouldn't it???

We should do book-swapping!!!!
Oh, the delicious books!!!
Also, I love you for having David Ives' All in the Timing. I used to have that, and it vanished at some point, but I made a series of people in college read it and 2 of them actually put up 1-acts from it: Words, Words, Words and Variations of the Death of Trotsky.

I heart David Ives. I just do.
You two are dreeeeeeeeeeeeeaaamyyyy!!!!!!

Also, I like your books.
