I wish I were a poet so that I could tell you how much your letters mean to me right now and you mean to me all the time. The thought of you is like a glowing golden thread running through the cloth of daily life. The hope and promise of our life ahead is the only thing that I look forward to; this army life, though not unhappy would be utterly pointless without the future to dream on and visualize and conjure up out of the dream clouds .... I can see our living room and library. They are soft cool green and the woodwork is gray. The red brown furniture
