And now you’re telling me
that you’re not nostalgic.
Then give me another word for it
you who are so good with words
and at keeping things vague.
Because I need some of that vagueness now
it’s all come back too clearly.
Yes, I loved you dearly
but if you’re offering me
diamonds and rust -
well, I’ve already paid.
(lyrics by Joan Baez)

This was sent by my Dad to my grandparents. It’s a little piece of history - my family history. It is the only correspondence that I have between them. To me it’s a treasure.
