It's Quiet Now

It is quiet now 
 -the sun moves up the ridge 

Honey crisp scent of freedom 
 -hovers and engulfs the air 

Pangs of pleasure peal 
 -the primrose bows her head 

Yellow paints the morning 
 -the fields are all aglow

Not only are you a brilliant writer but you are also just a great all around person. I love your wit, quick and funnier than even ME. (Of course I am not referring to this romantic poem.) I just wanted to take the time to tell you how much I respect and appreciate you. I miss you. Unfortunately my day to day life has been complex of late. You have been nothing but a great friend to me. This is a fav for me. Always armand.
