You never received my letter

You never received my letter I never knew

And I thought you did not wish to write

You looked for it and did not find it--

How awfully odd or maybe sad you must have been-

When no postal packet there was on the scene;

What strange emotions from the spirit must have risen?

Oh Dear for the misplacement of the letter May I be forgiven?

I never knew that you never set eyes on the paper blue

And I got a message so prompt so kind, "so nice of you'

What brevity of the wit was writ on the mini screen?

And I thought "a reply, but only words, and words -so few?"

While I was feeling happy at the ink so green------

Ah! Who is to blame for this fallen broken communication?

Who ever thought of raising partitions in a high house construction?

And above all, Nature did not make me so tall

I tried my best to throw the letter high across the wall.

If only I would have been like Thisbe, to speak or see through it--

Or fine fellow Romeo or soft sweet Jerry Juliet

I wish on the beautiful balcony, we had simply- just met;

How you spent all this time

What thoughts crossed your heart and mind?

When the letter you did not find-

That I was insincere- Created a shiver of fear

Maybe brought to the eye, a tear

'I will never be so near To someone ever again'

I can not bear this stress strain and pain,

Again again and again; You thought-OH I have work to do

I simply can not give time to you-who are you and why you, you-

And I, ME Myself-lifted my heavy self and thought of my thought enhancer-

My Mother! The remover of encumbrancer,

The kind calm patient motivation romancer,

AH -But herself suffering from the Big C cancer,

Would never ever get better, ever--

Taught me the lost art of writing letters;

And placing phrases words and thoughts in phonetic fetters;

I wish I had learnt the art of hurling the discus discs

From the Romans Italians and the great athletic Greeks

AH Then, you would have received my forlorn forsaken epistle

And I would have, to inform you, blown a little whistle;

WHEEEEE" Your post is flung across the Berlin Divide -

Come, Princess! Potentate Doctorate! Rise and Collect!

Take time out to write a reply lest the neighbor forever forget;

I never knew........
