Hi, Byron!

Today I am going to read. We have an incredible heat in Chicago, but yesterday we had a tornado and tomorrow . . . only God knows, because Chicago's weather is unpredictable. So I fancy reading and walking in the shade.

I must admit I am not for poetry --I never did--, but your poems are very nice. This, for example. I am unable to understand poems. I pay more attention to the words than to the message. My profession --Linguistics-- I guess. I consider this poem very elegant. Does it sound out of place? Well, maybe for a poet, but the language you use is marvelous.

I wish you ALL the BEST. Louisa.
