I received a love letter today! My first in decades! It's not every day that a little old lady receives a love letter. Is the frequency of love letters inversely proportional to age?

Back to my love letter. More love, less math. Math is a bummer after all and love, well, sometimes love is a bummer too, but...

Back to my love letter! The fellow actually said, among other things

In truth, you are fairer to me
than any flower.

I had no one to tell for some time, until @mariannewest provided the perfect prompt, fair, for me to tell all the world!

To be honest, this love letter was a post by a freewriter freewriting. He started his freewrite off with

Today's #freewrite is dedicated to @owasco. O waw r u ever going to be pissed when u see this.

He and I had gotten very chummy in print, are very appreciative of each others' freewrite and poetry skills, and have more than once written poetry together. He is less than half my age.

I was not pissed. I felt something closer to bliss.

I pulled it together and responded to his gushing, mushy, no holds barred love letter thus:

I am verklempt!
and hope you never see
how unkempt
I truly be

hahahahaha! So funny that someone is asking me. Find a good markdown guide. Some of the commands can be found under the question mark at the top right of your publishing tool when you are creating a new post. I used to have a link to a great markdown guide, but it doesn't function anymore.

this post has good instructions for making columns.

For links I put what I want to show in brackets [like this] followed by the url for the link in regular parentheses. It's super simple.

I could use that link if you wouldn't mind.

I have a voice lesson at four!!!! I'm learning how to sing. My teacher is now the amazing David Budway himself, and boy am I learning a lot. I also get to perform at his club at piano bars, with my teacher at his magnificent Steinway, in the room where we have our lessons, using the same mic. I never would have gotten up the nerve to sing in public if I hadn't managed to secure him as my teacher.

So today is a very good day, and instead of writing, I will be getting ready for my lesson by learning a new song "Blackberry Winter".

It took my HOURS to get that joke. Except, have I been called a bitch?

I'm a bot. I detect haiku.

@haikubot HAHAHAHAHAHA!

Nice image and must be fun to have love letters from many friends and the phrase you wrote is very nice though it's just short but it has nice lines as well. I am fond of choosing nice quotes too from the internet and I post it on my wall and me and my friends had a fine time with it. There are love quotes, friendship quotes, heart break quotes and motivational quotes guys.
