Toward You

By C.E. Ryan

Vers Toi postcard. Private Collection.

A beautiful pink postcard of a (very young) French soldier reaching up to his beloved. This one was unposted.

Toward you, I always turn to like I turn to the sun

Of which bright rays, warm us the same.

    I would have loved to receive those cards. I’ve seen whole collections seemingly sent by the same person to his love. Some sent them weekly or even more often. The luck of those gals lol

      I often buy some of the old unused cards which I send, I think that they still convey a subtle message that the current media doesn’t ;-)

      That’s really cool. Never thought of sending a vintage postcard, but that’s actually a good idea for the Holidays too.
