One of the guests
at the hotel is
a little older lady.

She sits alone,
but all the other guests
seem to know her.

She is nice to everyone,
and she talks nice to Bones.

Bones likes her,
because she’s nice.

Her name is Mrs. Carter.

When she leaves to hotel
to go home,
she gives Bones
her phone number,
and asks him to call her
when he gets back to Philly.

It turns out;
she lives on the Philadelphia Main Line,
out in Saint David’s.

When he gets home,
Bones gives Mrs. Carter a call.

She invites Bones
out to her place.

Bones gets on the El,
and takes it to
Sixty-Ninth Street.

From there, he gets a bus
to Saint David’s.

He’s lost, but that’s all right.

Mrs. Carter treats Bones
to a lovely steak dinner,
with a baked potato,
and everything.

It’s a very good time for Bones,
and he’s glad to see Mrs. Carter.

After dessert,
Bones goes home
to Port Richmond.

He never sees
Mrs. Carter again.

He remembers her
as a kind, and nice lady.

Dear Bobby, it's good to learn that Bones met such a gentle lady and it's also nice that he remembers her kindness.

Love,
Margherita

Thanks dear Margherita,

Yes, Mrs. Carter was a lovely lady. She was very kind.

I forgot to mention that she gave me a big tip.

Love Bobby
