The Letters #5
Darling,
That would be paradise forever my love, better to me than the idea of heaven. Sending you a butterfly I found in the garden today. I found its body lying under the pansies, a flash of blue in the corner of my eye. When I discovered the poor creature had perished, my first thought was to send him to you. I know of your fascination with the earth creatures and your predilection for giving them proper respect and burial in death. Perhaps you will give this butterfly the same treatment as so many others.
May the sweethearts sleep well.
