Hello sweet Drew,
I have missed you so much since you went away, but I do
understand your absennce. I have things to deal with myself
that takes my energies and I cannot correspond with anyone.

I am glad that what I write and share is something you get
feelings from. Whether you enjoy them or need them or just
identify with them, it is good to know I am understood. It is
my feeling that if I am going to tell about something personal,
I should just tell it, that way there is a clear picture to view.
It is in my poetry that I can mix fact and fiction for enjoyment.

I think of you often and have thought of you daily in this month which is a painful reminder of the loved ones we lost
in a past April. I wish I had known your wife, I can tell from the love others had for her that she was a lovely person. It
seems that these are the people we often lose early, as if
they were here long enough to shine and to brighten many lives and then they were gone, leaving us living on memories
too dear to put away.

Love and blessings to you. You are a dear and gentle man and
I hope you know how much you are loved. Friends forever. Sylvia
