Dear Mohammad Mian,

Thanks for your mind remembrance. While it is snowing outside I am here as snug as a rose in my blanket beside a golden fire. I wish you were here to write some poetry on Sawat in winter. Want to come! Can’t come! Life has its demands even under the blanket of snow! Hope you are all O.K.

Yours lovingly,

Zafar.
