Pushing The Envelope

Envelope addressed to Aline B. Louchheim by her husband, Eero Saarinen

Museum of the City of New York

I don't miss sweeping my tongue across the back of an envelope

I don't miss standing in line at the post office

I don't miss looking up a zip code

I don't miss having mail returned

I do miss choosing a stamp or stamps

I do miss writing with a fountain pen

I do miss choosing print or script
I do miss adding some kind of embellishment to the envelope
