Sometimes the best gifts come in the plainest wrappings...

I like that you talk about the feeling of it, not the concrete reality of what's inside. Enriches the poem even more. Great work, Helen!

Sometimes it's all about the wrapping, sometimes it's not.
Continually enjoying your sensitive work.

So, what was it....I wanna know? Just
kidding.... Yes, the most treasured
gifts can come very plainly wrapped...

Even people can be that way.....for a book
can not always be judged by it's cover...
