Title
Love poem for Gordon Copeland, typed and handwritten drafts, dated 9 July 1965 (over 30 years before Gordon's passing).
Description
This item includes 2 pieces of paper: one, a draft of the poem typed on a typewriter with handwritten edits, and the second, a handwritten version of the poem (probably an earlier draft) on lined composition book paper. Both versions are dated 9 July 1965. The poem has five stanzas, each beginning with "I love you Gordon," and also ends with this phrase again. The archivists assume this poem was written by Charles for his partner Gordon Copeland.
