No One Sends Postcards Anymore

Post by 68degrees » November 26th, 2014, 11:28 pm

We stood
on night grass,
your right hand
atop my shoulder;
you took off
one sandal,
leaned lithely
against me
as softly as
when November
snow falls
like the music
of saying your name

Doll, you may have found a place of rest but I'm still on the trail.

no one writes letters either
.............. we will need our memories to sustain us
If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading

Unfortunately photos, digital and otherwise,
have become postcard's replacements
... sans the written word.

Post Cards are / were the haiku of letter writing, I think. Once in a while, I do send one…sometimes just to my wife…just to get that rush of yesteryear.
