Dolph's Letter #62

Dear Sweetheart.

Another day without much to do or talk about.

The only thing worth remarking about is that when we got up for breakfast this morning it was snowing + hailing, + later turned into a drizzle. Thought it unusual but a fellow here who lived in France most of his life said no. You can well imagine it hasn't been comfortable today, but we have a little fire in our tent + that takes the chill out.

It would be nice wouldn't it? if I really had something to talk about — but even if I did, inevitably it would come around to the subject of you.

You who are more lovely + desirable than any other I have ever seen. My love for you is akin to none I have heard or ever read about. I love you + "You entirely possess me!" + that's it. For I am or shall be what you will. Besides our love everything palls.

I hope you are well dear. Take good care of yourself.

Your devoted husband,
Dolph
