Hi, Barrie, how was your day, dear? Did you have much work? Are you tired?
Thanks for your letter, it was lovely. I'm glad the weather is good. You know I can't imagine myself at sea. People who work at sea are like heroes for me. I remember my travel across the Irish Sea ones. And you know I wouldn't like to do it again.
Barrie, dear, sometimes I just have a wish to share my everyday thoughts with you. Sometimes I just forget we met only 4 weeks ago. It seems to me I know you for ages.
That's why sometimes I write things that don't connect with your previous letter. I write as if you has known me for a long time. So, some of my thoughts don't wait for the answer. I just think perhaps you would like to know them.
VOCABULARY
myself – себя
hero – герой
across – через
Irish – Ирландское
just – только, просто
previous – предыдущий
thoughts- мысли
perhaps – возможно

It's about the time when the Tame animals were wild....

So the woman made some wild animals tame except the wild cat. Yes, he lived at home with people. But when he has done that, and between times, and when the moon gets up and night comes, he is the Cat that walks by himself, and all places are alike to him.
Then he goes out to the Wet Wild Woods or up the Wet Wild Trees or on the Wet Wild Roofs, waving his wild tail and walking by his wild lone... .
