HISTORY OF THE LETTER
PEN & INK DRAWING
8.5 x 5.5 INCHES
Sold
It's easy to get lost
In an ocean of paper
And to miss that single word
That a writer has mined
From the bottom of the human heart
Like a diver
Who discovers a shimmering pearl on the ocean's bottom
Hidden away from human eyes
That would behold its beauty.
This is the world truth
Or, maybe a phrase
Noted with a bookmark,
Which is like a light for the traveller at night
Or like a sail for those
Who lose hope at sea.
