The Written Word


Few things encourage me like a hand written letter.
Or note.
Or card.
This letter came in early January all the way from
a friend in France.
I'll carry it with me...as a book mark,
stuck in my purse or schedule book...
It will be somewhere close to me for a good while.
Then, perhaps, it will get left tucked in a book, or in my bible...
and I'll find it at a much later date and that
smile that it brought when I first read it
will return.

....now, to write back!
