a letter has been writ using a graphite-influenced lead pencil four pages three photos were enclosed something personal something for her something just a rambling sort of letter nothing particular to say merely desiring to reach out to someone special I didn't mail it yesterday I won't mail it today I shall keep it intact never to be opened sitting here beside me with words sealed, ne'r to be read ©September 8, 2015 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~*~ When they give you ruled paper write sideways. ~*~ |

Interesting to write and never to send. Sometimes, those who dwell in our memory are out of reach, but never out of our thoughts. I don't think I could bear writing such a letter JerryPat. The intangible memories are hard enough. Many eights your way friend. She told me "play one for your supper Danny and maybe you'll get breakfast". |

Thanks Ticklefingers, I used that idea to finally close all the doors to what once was. It was written solely for my benefit. I hope it works, and I have a feeling it just might. ~*~ When they give you ruled paper write sideways. ~*~ |

My wish for you then, is that it does. Let it it begin this very day forward with the brightest of blessings surrounded by a circle of 8's! See ya' JerryPat  She told me "play one for your supper Danny and maybe you'll get breakfast". |

Bless your brand new heart my friend. That was a wise and loving thing to do for yourself. I'm very happy you are learning how to be kind to yourself.  ~L |

Sometimes its best to never send that letter. You get to say all you feel, all you want, all you regret, and sometimes that all that matters...isn't that why we write? |
