We are affirmed through ritual.
We are fulfilled through music.
-Confucius
Robert Creeley wrote an exquisite poem on love...
Love Comes Quietly
Love comes quietly,
finally,
drops around me,
on me,
in the old way.
What did I know,
thinking myself
able to go alone
all the way.
Some years ago, after I spoke the poem aloud a few times...the words seem to take on their own life...as if the poem demanded to be sung. So I did. And so I do. And love is still coming quietly on every note.

What great words...
As I say,"There's a life time" or was it "This one is worth a whole lifetime"? Either way, you made a perfect fit,from within your perfection free zone!
