Ophelia Letter Blow 'way

Ophelia Letter Blow 'way song dates back in 1950 (Elder-FolksongsFromTobago). This song is describing as life is like a letter that wind can blow away, but the person whose life has been lost is not dead but blown away to some other place, like Arima.

Elder-FolksongsFromTobago: "In 'Ophelia letter' we have a beautiful metaphor of a woman losing her husband or spouse and the sheer impossibility of saying just where the dead man is."
