Pen Pals Poem by Jackie Chou
Pen Pals
I miss the sinuous curves
of our words-
the way our blue ink
pitter-pattered
onto scented pink stationary
filling it with stuff
we can now google online
Bohemian fashion
Lady Chatterley's Lover
the special stamps we bought
of paintings, birds, celebrities
to put on floral envelopes
cardboard photos
we kept in albums
like we were real
flesh and blood friends
Well conceived and nicely brought forth. A passionate creation, nostalgic and very heartfelt.
