James Hilton, The Meadows of the Moon, Boston: Small, Maynard & Company 1927.

To My Darling Pal:-
Just something to remind you
That every single day
Brings happy little memories
Of you and your sweet way;
Just something to remind you
That all the whole year through
There’s someone sort o’yearnin’-
      just for you!
Heaps o’ love,
“Fluff”
