I choose to write now for memory
For the gifts and for treasured words, ideally lasting a while
The words so genuinely heartfelt
I long to leave their intended readers with a smile
I hope they find this little piece of me
With all its intended humour, nuance, and sincerity
But as I part ways with them and this chapter of my life closes
So too does the envelope so important
Yet some see it as worthless.
