It's just a small piece of paper, Clean, worn, crumpled, or stained, But the joy that the sight of it give me Has never, no never, been named.

As I look at it I wonder Of the strange sights which it has seen. And I cannot help but want to know On whose letter it has been.

Perhaps it's helped join two lovers, But of that who could be sure? Is it not just as likely That it was written from boor to boor?

Is it a man or a lady that put it With hands either firm or fine On this old well-kept envelope The color of Burgundy wine?

I can never know, but what difference The stamp is, of course, the main thing, It's just a small piece of paper But joy upon joy it does bring.

Mrs. Nagalakshmi Tadakaluri, Philatelist.
