Love Letters

1424225_img_2 Antique French Love Letters, inked on paper with a quill, tender thoughts from a man to his woman, his heart expressed like many unfolded pages, in perfect script dated 1769, before any of our hearts had such pleasure of being read or written upon.

Love gathered and saved like delicate flowers. One-by-one guarded. Held close by hand to heart. Such as a glove clasp that keeps the pair of gloves from being separated and lost. Holds gently their souvenir of love. The petals of yesterdays faded memories, look at us longingly…

May today you write a page of love on someones heart to be carried into tomorrow’s dreams.

  1. Oh so beautifully written Corey. I love old letters … any old letters … whether they are of love or of life or just about the weather! Merci.

  2. That is beautiful. You know I have never written a letter like that ever. I guess I am frightend to put my deepest feelings on paper. What if I read them back and they just sound silly?

    Thank you for sharing your thoughts with me, when I receive a “comment” it is like a love letter of sorts, because it allows me to know someone out there is reading what I blog, and that encourages me!

  7. Marvellous stuff. Came across you from Russ Beyond Provence. Where is your home? PS: love all the photos in “life outside my door”.

  8. This is a very beautiful photo and beautiful words! Ah it’s long time ago that I’ve got my last love letter *sigh*

  9. Those are gorgeous. Part of me aches for a time when suitors would write letters like these. I would love to have my husband’s thoughts spilled out on paper like that.
