The postcards you see here are some I found. They are from the second world war from a young lady to her sergeant in the army, and also from him to her. They make sweet reading.

beyond
her
understanding
but she carried on
writing
***
the willow
you gave me
perpetually painting
your
skies
***
the ocean
knew
all her hopes, thoughts, and fears
was waiting
to comfort her
***
***
her
fingers
touched the water
the image
blurred
***
some trick
of the light
made me see you there
cushion
on the chair
***
what inspires
gives hope
your constant companion
for
your soul's journey
***
he
sits
silently
listening
to your thoughts
***
***
lies and truth
truth dies
lies live
so
wars can be won
***
her heart
locked away
a long time ago
one person found the key
but then he had to leave
***
spirit
all
around
whispering
in the gentle wind
***
sitting
in
the willow bower
swinging my legs
to and fro
***
***
a parting
in
the road
I wonder
where are you now?
***
the setting sun
writing
poems in the sky
as I
write this
***
willow
gently brushing
my book
turns over
the page
***
she watched
the number plates
as the cars drove past
each one
had a message for her
***
it was
an
unreal world
there were
no boundaries
***
***
the wind sang softly
so as not
to disturb her sleep
and whispered
her precious messages
***
the raindrops
on dry dusty concrete
drawing a pattern
or maybe
a message
***
each
word
has
its own
beauty
***
***
her eyes
blurred with tears
reading the letter
a gentle wind came along
blew them all away
***
the
unseen hands
waiting
to put you
back on your feet
***
heaven's
embroidered covers
slowly floating down
gently
comforting
***
unexpectedly
from the sea mist
his familiar gait
came
walking towards her
***
strangeness
of
words
in their
charmed space
***
***
when
he
came home
he brought himself
with him
***
she pined
for memories
changed irrevocably
by
passage of time
***
much
she did not know
beyond her understanding
but
she did know his love
***
***
"someone..."
the voice called
in the echo
then
it tailed off
***
she
sang
the sky
intriguing
music
***
the sky
silently
veiling
the
troubled land
***
***
leafing
through sheet music
I look for one
that plays
to my heart
***
looking at photos
of people from the past
I shut my eyes
then
open them quickly hoping to catch them by surprise
***
your touch
so
gentle
the moment
goes on
***
heavenly angels
watch over him
keep him safe
guide him
home again
***
lovers of
the past
sitting in willow bower
full moon
smiles
***
until
we
meet again
I’ll carry
your heart in mine
***
***
a parting
in
the road
I wonder
where are you now?
