I dreamt we met in verses once again.
The mood was Lithuanian as yourself.
Our convesation was in pen and ink,
Outdated as a winter aeorgramme.

Our convesation was in pen and ink, Outdated as a winter aeorgramme. - From the core of my heart, I mourn the demise of 'aeorgrammes and envelopes', of hand written letters. If you have time, you may like to read my poem titled 'Our Lost Treasure Trove' and say a few words please. This poem deserves full marks.10/10.

Each and every new poem you post is but another page in your incredible repertoire. The poem reeks of nostalgia that rises like dust, disturbed by the hooves of time. Now, in this age of high tech communication, the aerogramme has become a symbol of the past - another link in time's never ending necklace; a link that has lost its utility and is fading from memory but yet - in it's day - was one of the most important modes of communication. How true? ? ? The power of great memories does have a transcendental quality that can make time irrelevant and in doing so gives us a lot to smile and be happy about. Sandra, you never cease to astound and delight your readers with your wonderful gift for words. Leonard

Those aerograms once were familiar to me. No wonder you still dream of your aerogram friendship: friends never disappear, but live in memory and dreams. The imagery is wonderful: a winter etude of warm memory.

Thanks a lot for this wonderful, rare winter aerogram! Slowly falling snow flakes, name written on the windowpane, lighting up old souls....Exquisite, soothing, reassuring words that make living worthwhile...

what I write keeps disappearing! ! this is simply beautiful, captures the thrill of love in a letter, an aerogramme, light, falling on a heart much like snowflakes - touching; moving; sensitive mark

Rare as a single snowflake is that bond, That lights old souls beyond all winterness. this is simply marvellous, Sandra. love, light, snowflake - all so fragile, yet so engaging, so thrilling, ever reaching out to other snowflakes, other lights, other loves in a bond softly silken.10 written all over this piece. mark mark
