THE LOVE LETTER, by LILLIAN VIGGERS First Line: More than a word in writing Last Line: Is far too frail to hold the key. Subject(s): Letters; Love; Messengers; Writing & Writers | |||
More than a word in writing I care that all is well with you; Negligence is all that is keeping Your loving pen its message due. More than words were they written I care that the world loves you; Silence you keep, if waiting But finds your heart still beating true. More than a promise given, Your heart was locked for me; What retards the billet-doux Is far too frail to hold the key. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE CELL, SELECTION by LYN HEJINIAN OXOTA: A SHORT RUSSIAN NOVEL: CHAPTER 126: THE DOUBTING MAN by LYN HEJINIAN WAKING THE MORNING DREAMLESS AFTER LONG SLEEP by JANE HIRSHFIELD COMPULSIVE QUALIFICATIONS by RICHARD HOWARD DEUTSCH DURCH FREUD by RANDALL JARRELL LET THEM ALONE by ROBINSON JEFFERS ON BUILDING WITH STONE by ROBINSON JEFFERS BUILDING TODAY by LILLIAN VIGGERS |
