Remembrance
I think of thee when soft and wide
The evening spreads her robes of light.
And like a young and timid bride
Sits blushing in the arms of night.
And when the moon's sweet crescent springs
It's light o'er heaven's deep waveless sea,
And stars are forth like blessed things,
I think of thee! I think of thee!
* Verse from the 1890's paper lace Valentine pictured below.
Happy Valentine's Day! May you celebrate with those you hold close in your heart.

Happy Valentine's Day back to you!
Happy Hearts Day to you too Susan!
This lace Valentine is incredibly delicate and beautiful -- and in wonderful condition. I love the verse -- people knew how to "speak" then unlike now with so much slang and "snappy" verse!
Very pretty Susan, especially the locket casket. I think of thee and I covet thy collection!!
