   Yes. That was not so difficult now, was it?

   Good one, Don. Rilke said all life was a falling. And giving assent to that falling, as in your poem, is how we become earthly, and can be, if only once, fully here.

   So beautiful, life, and, so simple, actually, the process……..Thank you, Don.

   I have fashioned myself with the minerals of the earth and when I finish my work, I return the generosity. Thank you for enunciating this amazing process, Don!

   Don, I am reminded by this what my friend said this week-end, that the whales have finished their work here and that is why we see them beaching. We all have work here, right now mine is to appreciate your lovely two poems. Thanks.

   This one says to me that it could be a choral song. I will have some time for composing again soon. Would it be all right with you if I see what more it wants to become?
