The Core of Love

Book Cover & Preview Text
Small Talk with Nature Inhaling the orchid's fragrance in the blue morning, I start to talk to you. My words from my breath are just murmuring messages like hopeless whispers, but you look understandingly at me. Our conversation breath to breath is like impossible affection I once transparently dreamed of in my childhood. It's what I've forgotten for a long, long time and put away in the dark brain cells. Voiceless passions for life come out in pink? half bold, half shy, it wakes up my heart, and becomes the essence of my daily life's perfume.
