A LETTER- 53 years old letter

53 YEARS AGO…

Bonnie wrote to Clark…
A letter in love
Four one cents stamped
Postmarked February 1958
Asking why he didn't call before he ramped…

They had married that year…
Children were a count of four
Got divorced….
And now the letter comes
When Clark approaching his neat 74….

He is happy he is glad…
Or maybe a little sad….
A ratio of mixed feelings he had…
She wrote to him
Now he wonders….
Their love flew away…

They had made many blunders…

But something’s stay back….
And come to you when you least
Expect to check the stack…

Arrived tucked inside a magazine…
Was the love of a girl, just nineteen…
Publicized were emotions….
In the form of a long reached letter…
Though she is glad in another corner…
At least it arrived sooner or later…                           

How strange is love…?
Timing it so perfect….
Knocking on your doors….
Just when you are about to forget..,,

Who would have thought
That two people
Who don’t even see each other today
Were madly in love someday…
Connecting them is just a string ….
A letter…
A 53 years old letter….
