I always feel so calm, and good...

After a successful poetry read...

I had one tonight, where I read the poem I posted last night...

The room was so quiet, you could've heard a pin drop...

And the applause after just blew me away...

I am so grateful for this gift of writing!

And for the events in my life that revealed it to me...

4. You know...

I really did...

These people are my poetic family...

And when the guy who runs the show says "Wow, Peggy"...

Well...

It's amazing!

5. Interesting that you feel so calm and good...

I've undertaken an initiative to be nice to everybody, even the trolls.

The basis of the theory is this: "Cal. Peg is nice to everybody and is beloved for it. Everybody is dear to Cal. Peg and thus Cal. Peg is dear to everybody. Harmony flows from the absence of conflict. The secret to a harmonious life within DU is to be more like Cal. Peg."

I think it's very Zen, or perhaps Tao. Thus far, it's working. :)

It's awesome to hear that your poetry reading went so well. I missed the poem last night, but it must have been a great poem to receive such applause. :applause:

6. My dear Chan790...

Oh, wow...What an incredible tribute!

I thank you...

And I'm very glad to hear that it's working...

Eventually, I hope to get this poem onto YouTube, and then you can hear me...

Until then, you can read it here:
