It's quiet.

And few words slip past to
reach the fingers.

I write only what has
fallen.

Returning to the silence of
this poem.

Magic...simply magical!!

In the midst of winter,
I found there lives within me..
An invincible summer.

There is a beautiful flow of harmony in the quietness you evoke, dear Eric.

*
Words falling

like snow crystals,

you catch them

and they dissolve

on your fingers,

while you quietly

record

their ethereal beauty

offered

in a silent

gesture of love.

*
I love you.

What is expressed through the fingertips is perhaps the purest of all thought put to deed.
Excellent.

so eloquently and perfectly...saying volumes
in but a breath. Thank You.
