The Happy Rose - Postcard Friendship Friday #98



Valentine's Day is just a little over a month away.  I adore this holiday.  It gives me another chance to celebrate the love of my dear husband.  I have been married to a wonderful man for over 28 years.  What a delightful adventure our life has been! 
The poem on this postcard is quite lovely.


I wish I were the happy rose,
That nestles near your cheek.
And breathes against its sister rose,
The love I dare not speak.

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!

  8. Great postcard. I've seen little evidence in the UK of Valentine's Day being just around the corner, although bizarrely the TV adverts here are pushing Easter Eggs already! Happy PFF.
