Knud Ferlov writes to Sonja Ferlov Mancoba that he was thinking of her, and a verse by Grundtvig came to his mind, which he writes to her. He follows this up with another phrase focusing on the transience of life and the passage of time. Additionally, he recounts that he has lived in a festive mood in connection with his 90th birthday.
