Enveloped

Softly silently the letter boy writes

drawing images with words

and creating feelings with his lines.

Quickly quietly the letter boy thinks

of the girl

the eyes

the lips

for whom he pens his emotions;

scrawling his visions and fantasies

his mind races by and by

each word

each line

each page.

Lightly lovingly the pencil swipes

across the parchment

absorbing the art and care

expunging from his fingertips.

Dashing daring he awaits the moment

where his writing manifests

into that for which he sends.

Not a pen in his hand,

but hers.
