Received your letter today
As the paper rustled between my fingers
I shivered at your touch.
Your writing winked at me
Making my heart go aflutter
And your words,
Oh your words!
They caressed me
and teased me
and nuzzled me,
Coaxing a smile from me
My tears are rainbow hued
Your words have painted them.
❤❤❤❤💙💙💙💚💚💚💛💛💛
