acceptance letters

At the close of a day of nothingness comes something. A short visit to an old lady's apartment flat. Mom brings home a carton of rich and creamy strawberry ice-cream. Two acceptance letters from the university. One says, we like your stories. The other says, we like your poems. I actually try when writing my stories. But I'm surprise to hear you like my poems. But acceptance letters are always quite heartwarming are they not? Doesn't it all come down to we wanting to be accepted? Alongside 'birthday' and 'wedding' and 'sympathy' and 'new home' we can also have a new category of cards called 'acceptance' cards.
