Postcard eleven

 

Peggy, 

 

"When at night, when we’re
apart
Can sorrow break your
tender heart?"

For the time you were away, yes. A year or so later, after meeting Kris, and for many immature years following, yes.

"I love you, darling, yes I

do
Sleep is sweet when I think
of you..."

Again, for many immature "I love you" dreams after her...yes. Sleep was only sweet when I dreamed of her.

And as always, your letters made the sorrow sweet.

Not good to hear you are alone, again. Here I am.     Sorry, about this part.     I look at her face every night. Remembering her voice, the feel of her skin.      You haven't said much about your family. Your younger sister was always kind to my wandering, immature, ignorant soul. I don't know that I like the word soul. I haven't found one (word) that I like, that fits, yet.
