Weekly love notes
woven from the stories
of everyday life.
Sunday Love Letters
Sunday Love Letters
On Sundays,
I write love letters.
I make myself a warm cup of coffee,
settle into the coziest corner of my couch,
and I think of you, my friend.
Those letters first travel
through my newsletter... and later,
at the end of each month,
I gather them here.
On their little shelf.
