Pen to paper, such a simple act
The sincerity of your thoughts
Sent in response to my own
I wait for your letter
But the darkness grows
As time goes by
Without a
Single
Word
This nonet is my response to Sue Vincent’s (Daily Echo) Thursday Photo Prompt – Glimpsed #writephoto, with her photo. (I saw a mail slot.)
Nonet ~ a poem of nine lines and a syllable pattern of 9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1, with rhyme optional
beautiful always

I’ve waited for letters like those…

This is so effective, and I can identify with it as I regularly write letters but never get a reply now.

One might say it’s a sign of the times, but it’s been that way for some time, right into the age of email.

Indeed. Even though I send those too, I don’t get many in response.
