The old man dropped his precious letter <br />into the isolated letter box <br />where it stands in the gravel road. <br />The notorious postman who tampers letters <br />comes very seldom to collect. <br />He found only one letter in the box <br />but no addressee and stamps too. <br />He opened the letter and read loudly. <br />' I am an old godforsaken man <br />but still not senile; good for nothing my dear. <br />This could be a giveaway for you. <br />If you read this I am sure you may excuse me. <br />Do you know about spiritual love? <br />Sometimes this letter will annoy you my sweetheart! <br />Take it easy honey as I am a dreamer. <br />I am lonely and frustrated <br />and I need someone with a goodwill <br />who comes and stay with me forever. <br />I'll offer you my old hammock <br />and I know thousands of stories <br />which I can read for you on full moon days <br />until you sleep quietly my darling. <br /> <br />dedication to the letter box at ' home for the elders'<br /><br />nimal dunuhinga<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-heart-throb-and-the-go-between/
