Eve –
Please don’t be
angry with me — I do
have a copy of this
book, which I could
have lent you –

but — how can
I say it? — you just
cannot read “gift from
the sea” — it must be
kept nearby – always-
to read & reread –
there is so much of
you in anne lindbergh’s
writing–

the deep spirit
of — ‘woman’ — in all
it’s loveliness, mysticism
and splendour — the ache
of longing, of loneliness –
and all those many
unspoken thoughts –
above all –

the wond’rous
beauty of ‘femininity’ –
it is all you, Eve –
–>
we need no words -
to express our bond of friendship –
my feeble mode of
expression falls short
of what I would
will from my heart -

Forgive me –
but in reading
this — I know -
you will understand -

Sue

A special thought for a
special someone, who
makes me glow, and
smile, and always
brings the best out of me.
A sort of inspiration.

Always,

P.S. I’m hoping you’re going to
be all right. I’m kind
of worried! Take care.
