Write a Letter
It has become a rarity
in this age of text and email
to write someone a letter
stick on a stamp set it on its trail
In former years receiving a letter
was something to look forward to
to write well constructed communication
was a gift only a few could do
Our fast pace world has lost
in its so called progress
what is true communication?
their word best is press
The gift of listening
today has been lost
taking time to hear a friend
has became filled with frost
So what can be done
to address this lack
get our communication going
prove pen and paper is truly back
