Ataraxis Of that, that lazed in the league composed, faraway sights gifted reserve from activewear a euphuistic fence, the settling dust of undisturbed light flickers an arrival. Yon an ornate circular gate is a varied stone patterned garden, and a sparsed generous scattering of diverse bonsai tree settings, fronts a Sleeping Jade Buddha in misty Jasmine smokey vapors. Beyond the Japanese Tea garden in its genteel wake, rests a surreal koi filled pond and a Japanese lanterned pathway, leads to enchanting bridged tea pavillions of seven in harmony. A therapeutic spa in relaxed equanimity awaits guest, to a soothing massage amidst aromatic candlelights and redolent sprayed oils from the Far East, as a koto plays, and a geisha nocturnes. Pleasantries and sweet dispositions lay in its wake, as a commensuration in the departure of an unfathomable regret, sets the opening stages of a welcomed future dream. 2020 February 16 *3rd Place* STRAND SELECT R,any form ,any theme ~~Brian Strand
