Three Letters

Dear Friend
When the day brings petty aggravations
And my poor frayed nerves are all askew
I forget these unimportant matters
Pouring out my hopes and dreams to you

As I sit here, looking out my window
I can see the summer disappear
Oh, dear friend
All at once
Autumn's here
Look!
Autumn

Dear Friend
With November just around the corner
I've a feeling you may also share
Do you feel an undertone of discord
And a sense of tension in the air?

Mr. Nowack
Must the sidewalk always be covered with leaves?

If it weren't for your endearing letters
I'd be flying south with all the geese
By the way
Have you read
"War and Peace"?
Look!
Winter

Dear Friend
Have you set your calendar for Tuesday?
When we bring this chapter to a close?
When I meet my lady of the letters
Who puts tiny faces in her "O"s
In the freezing weather of December
I'll be warmly waiting for our date

Until then
Count the hours
Oh my Lord, I'm late!
I'm late for work!
