THE WOODS ARE LOVELY, DARK AND DEEP

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening

by Robert Frost

Whose woods these are I think I know.

His house is in the village though;

He will not see me stopping here

To watch his woods fill up with snow.

FAERIES

When the first baby laughed for the first time, his laugh broke into a million pieces, and they all went skipping about. That was the beginning of fairies.

TO MY OLD MASTER

While searching for more old correspondence online I stumbled upon this blog containing a collection of several LETTERS OF NOTE from Michael Jordan's funny and cute love note to his dearest Laquette to a Lt. General's very cleverly concealed message.

Most notable one is from a former slave written to his old master. Here's the whole transcript:

IMMORTAL BELOVED

>>

One of my most favorite love letters of all time from one of the world's acclaimed musical virtuoso

Though still in bed, my thoughts go out to you, my Immortal Beloved, now and then joyfully, then sadly, waiting to learn whether or not fate will hear us - I can live only wholly with you or not at all - Yes, I am resolved to wander so long away from you until I can fly to your arms and say that I am really at home with you, and can send my soul enwrapped in you into the land of spirits - Yes, unhappily it must be so - You will be the more contained since you know my fidelity to you. No one else can ever possess my heart - never - never - Oh God, why must one be parted from one whom one so loves. And yet my life in V is now a wretched life - Your love makes me at once the happiest and the unhappiest of men - At my age I need a steady, quiet life - can that be so in our connection? My angel, I have just been told that the mailcoach goes every day - therefore I must close at once so that you may receive the letter at once - Be calm, only by a calm consideration of our existence can we achieve our purpose to live together - Be calm - love me - today - yesterday - what tearful longings for you - you - you - my life - my all - farewell. Oh continue to love me - never misjudge the most faithful heart of your beloved.

ever thine

ever mine

ever ours

LETTERS

To send a letter is a good way to go somewhere without moving anything but your heart.
