Dear "Seeking Witty Gentleman",
Flowers I would bring,
If flowers could make thee fairer.
Forgive the slight effusiveness of the quote but it is what immediately came to mind when I came across your advertisement. I don't know if it counts as being witty but poetry to my mind is never unwelcome and I am hopeful that you might feel the same? I am no poet though, and the world is surely grateful for that, but I am a herbologist rarely to be found out of my greenhouse. My eyes are never quite so filled with light then when I am surrounded by greenery, as anybody who knows me well will tell you.
Are you similarly green-fingered?
Hoping to hear from you soon,
M.S.
MJ knows my soul rings to the rune of this iconic hat
