The Blossoms of Summer

Letter to Livia

Dearest, dearest Livia,

I sit in reflection tonight to write you merely to assuage the longing in my heart, as we have been parted for over a year, but I am rapidly approaching home, as fleet as Mercury, bearing the promise that I shall always love you and care for you, no matter what exotic and bizarre rituals I might have witnessed, or participated in, upon such foreign and alien lands. You must promise never to ask of the ungodly things I encountered in my travels, and know that I love you with a pure heart. Memories of you sustain me through the most trying of circumstances.

Yours,

Robert
