Silk Petals Papery as Love Greeting Card
Outside:
Silk petals papery as love
Inside:
or is love the sturdier stalk
that stands, waiting through winter,
while beauty dissolves
into the longing ground
Let your loved one know how much you love them with this card. Maybe you are the petals and they are the stalk or vice versa. Or maybe you take turns. You can also give this card to someone who misses or has lost a loved one. The lines in the card come from the poem “Mala” in the book The Two Hearts Inside Us.
Ideas for what you could write in the card:
Valentine’s Day or Anniversary — “Sometimes our love seems so easy and effortless, as light and papery as a petal. Other times it feels sturdy and true, like a strong stalk rooted in the ground. Thanks for being my Valentine (or husband/wife for anniversary card) and for being both strong and light at the same time - you ground me and lift me up all at once, and I’m so grateful for your presence in my life.”
Occasion: missing you, love, anniversary, Valentine’s Day, empty nest / child leaving home, sympathy/grief
Card is $4.00 including tax. Or, you can get a box of 6 cards for $20 (including tax) that comes with a red bow - you essentially get a card free with this set! Treat yourself, or buy them as a gift.
Card measures 5 1/2” wide x 4 1/4” tall, comes with an A6 envelope, and is packaged inside a protective sleeve.
