An Ode to the Greeting card

For the Valentine's day

By Salomé SaffiriPublished 2 years ago • 1 min read

The messengers of feelings

With heartfelt little greetings

Encourage Cupid's dealings

However fleeting.

Their bodies stamped with glitter,

Their hearts filled with confessions.

In days becoming litter—

An ode to passing passions.

Declaring love with paper,

Three words are printed clear,

For no love can be safer

Than paper souvenir.

About the Creator

Salomé Saffiri

Writing - is my purpose. I feel elated when my thoughts assume shapes, and turn into Timberwolves, running through the snowbound planes of fresh paper, leaving the black ink of their paw prints behind.
