Love letters
When my husband went into the army. He was in four months in the Field artillery in Oklahoma he wrote me everyday. Sitting in my wheelchair now as I look into my closet I can see a box. I think it is the letters he sent me along with the ones to his parents. I wonder what they say. I remember how pleased I was to receive them. I remmeber one class I was in in college that the professor said "Old lady Burkhardt seems happy today. She must have received another letter from Private Morgan". His asthma got him out of the army. I always loved the comment that the comedian , George Gobel said. "The Japaneses never conquered Oklahoma while I was stationed there." In my writing class people mention finding old letters of their grandparents and I wonder what we said and if I even want other people to read them.I havwe a nice feeling looking at the box.
