Who would your last letter be to? And what would it say? www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...
What would you write in a very last letter and why?
If you had the chance to write just one last letter, to whom would you send it?

borrowed from the Taíno) in Percy Shelley’s “Mont Blanc” (1816) has me wondering: when *did* the word first enter the English language?

Visit the hidden buds, or dreamless sieep
