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

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. |
