Dear Norman,

    Hi!
    
I just read your letter to Didier  (about 20 minutes ago).
      
      yes, of course, your words do reach
                          and  anticipate;
                         antiquate?
                                  I don't think so.
                                 yes and know.
                    and Llife is spelled more
                     than one way
                      Ll Ii Ff Ee !
                      lL iI fF eE  !

Woops! - postage due.
                 dew.
                      drop it in the box
                      of your memories.
A container / creator of so many treasures
to dream of
           often!
                      awake asleep
       Don't close your eyes!  you might
                               wake up !
Next time you are walking, stop
                               look at the blade of
                              grass. See its thoughts
Share its life - touch the dewdrop that, 
at the moment visits that singular life interfusing
with all other life.
                    That dewdrop, another
                    life
                         form
                 on your fingertip
                  Now
      Look closely into the dew -
                  other Life is reflected in that
                            drop.
Just a Miniature mirror?
         See your reflection within it also.
         a moment in time  then?
You are in the dewdrop,               
                        and
you are outside of it.
               yet you touch it
                    yourself.
                    
                    
                    
                    
                    
                    
                    
and the dewdrop reflecting
               is
              reflected
             in your eyes
                your thoughts
reflected in the dewdrop.
