Woodson's 1961 Christmas Card


December 25, 1961

Heavens

We have been very concerned of late
That man (an accomplice of blind fate)
So very, very, very, very clever is he
Has blasted Heaven into Eternity!

How far out must one be
In the black depths of infinity
To prove there is nothing but utter loss
With our hearts welded to an atomic cross?

Sand and water, grass and sun,
These be our bodies 'til life be done
Elves and fairies and children at play
These be our hearts from day to day.

Woodson and Ruth Tyree
601 Mesa Road
Colorado Springs, Colo.

Radar defense reports 11/22/61 ... and ... 37 pieces of "Junk in orbit."
