AND
16 February 2001

And I love you,
little word,
for your brevity
and your Biblical cadence
and your graceful shape
and the roundness of your letters
and your meaning
and the continuity you imply
and the hope you promise
when all is lost.

Giggly smiles at your reply, Steaven, thank you - and wistful smiles at the relationship I have with that tiny fascinating conjunction . . .
