The Hidden Letters of Velta B.
“What if a bedrock of words girded the ground beneath our feet? What if the sky were a brattice of sound, hum, and hymn holding us in an invisible embrace? What do I think of this, a poem for the newspaper?
I don’t know if your grandmother ever received hate mail. Certainly there were heated exchanges, particularly regarding politics or recipes involving carrots. She was not a fan of them, as you may or may not recall. She usually got the last word in with her “Kindly Advices” column. If you c...an’t say anything nice, then shut up already! Did people appreciate her labors with the newspaper? Probably not. Her pearls, as Father would say, had been scattered before swine.

And the old pictures. The one you showed me this morning was her favorite, bar none. The legendary Baltic Chain. She wrote an article about what it was like standing along the roadway outside of Riga amid a long line of people holding hands.MoreLess
