He
wrapped
it
in
that
brown
postal
wrap
and
taped
it
over
and
over
in
cellophane
as
if
it
were
being
mummified
in
a
grand tomb.
I
was
the
archaeologist.
I'd
already
found
my
treasure
though
...in
him
.
I
kept
the
little
green
customs
slip
and
admired
his
signature
.
Little
did
I
know
how
much
the
contents
would
mean
to
me
.
The
grandeur
of
this
fuzzy
blanket
emanates
from
my
bed
to
the
corners
of
my
room
.
The
flamboyant
smiling
sun
is
a
comforting
greeting
after
a
long
day
of
work
.
It
is
upon
this
blanket
that
I
shall
have
some
of
my
best
daydreams
about
you
and
your
short
brown
hair
,
large
masculine
hands
,
and
stunning
deep
eyes
.
Your
laughter
is
a
grand
chorus
in
my
mind
.
The
notes
bounce
upon
my
ideas
and
reach
a
crescendo
when
they
touch
on
my
hopes
.
The
little
panda
bear
has
become
my
traveling companion
of
sorts.
He
doesn't
seem
to
mind
going
wherever
I
go
...Perhaps
the
next
time
I
make
a
grand
discovery
he'll
be
my
assistant digger?
And
finally
,
how
could
I
forget
the
tome
of
love
you
so
carefully arranged?
Card
after
card
, scrawled
with
your
words
...as sacred
as
an
ancient
scroll.
Come
to
my
museum
and
I
shall
show
you
dreams
unfolding
among
my
exhibits
of
affection
.
It
is
a
great
treasure
...this
discovery
.
The
package
was
just
the
key
.
