A LETTER
A letter is the warmest way-
To bid a friend the time of day-
A keep in touch that brings the smiles-
Across the longest miles-
And what a feeling of strength and hope-
Is tucked inside an envelope-
Reminding loved ones that you are-
At least in heart, not very far-
In no country, state, or camp-
The wealth is beneath the price of a stamp-
For memories that never age-
Are written upon every page-
And though it's nice to telephone-
One of the sweetest pleasures known-
Are the moments shared in thoughts we send-
... That can be read time and time again.
