I took a package to the post office. I’d wrapped it up the night before; a book, a small pendent, a t-shirt to be savored, a hand-drawn card with some private thoughts, all surrounded by bubble wrap to keep things from shifting. I taped the box closed tightly, not wanting its contents to be revealed prematurely. I stuck the address label on with its destination written in my scrawl.
Arriving at the post office, my charge was given to the woman behind the counter beginning its long journey. As I drove home, I secretly wished I was in that box, too.

Lovely, romantic 101 words, darling. And I wrote about allergies.
:-O
Sweet as warm maple syrup over pancakes.

Robin - Thank you my dear. I do have a pretty wide romantic streak running through me.
Boanerges - No, they don't quite fill the void, that's true. But I do love sending and receiving when it's the only alternative. Thank you.
Cindy - Thank you. Secret? I did need that 101st word and it is a thought I have to myself as I'm driving away. It's certainly no secret now!

Kathy - I'm glad you liked it!
Very romantic, my friend, rated.
This is a dear rendering from a heart so big its package can't be sent as a shipped package. Only you can deliver such a feeling to the rightful place.
Peace to you and your lady. -R-
