Letter from

Homeland spoken

Word of prayers

In letters

Eyes of dream open

Silent obscurity of words

Their gentle touch leaves on paper

A stroke of supple speech

Melts

Glacier of mind

Makes abode in phrasing

Becoming dazzling sentinel

Keep standing, eyes struck

Against the darkness

Aghast

Opposing time

Piety of the letter

Like seasoned leaves

On mins-journal’s plain pages

Like your bosom pulsating in words

Parchment of mind

Augmenting and shrinking

Through seasons of inner pilgrimage

Word of letters are scattered

Flourishing in the heart, flowering reminiscence

From the mind, squeezed out like honey

Words of letter, steeped in spiritual memory

The letter of Our country

A letter that came from home
