A Note

I wasn't sure what came ashore
tattered and torn but still holding on
was a piece of paper written to who
knows who
In plain text someone sent 
a letter of love missing their beloved
mentioning labor of love fit like a glove
there is no need to shove for
true love swarms in like a turtle dove
calling from above.
This love wants to meet in the center street 

Think I put it aside, let air dry
my new found love letter floated to me
from out there yonder, that great big old sea.
how that letter smelled fishy

Beautiful! Surpassing all odds this letter, battered by winds, water, and storms founds it way into the hands of someone who would cherish the love that went into writing it.

Excellent lyrical rhyming with a lilting rhythm to your sing-song message! It's almost as if your words are bouncing on the ripples of the ocean . . . good way to show instead of tell! I love the last stanza especially . . . nice sense of humor! Here's wishing you & your loved ones a very merry Christmas! (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie
