Whispers on Paper

In parchment's embrace, a story unfurls,

A letter, a vessel for heart's soft whirls.

In ink's delicate dance, emotions abide,

Words penned with care, where feelings reside.

Each stroke, a whisper of love or of pain,

Etched on the page, a soul's sweet refrain.

Folded with care, a secret to hold,

A tale of longing, of dreams untold.

Sealed with a kiss, or a waxen seal,

Bound by a promise, its essence surreal.

Through time's gentle passage, it finds its way,

To kindred spirits, where echoes may sway.

A letter, a bridge, across distance and time,

A symphony of thoughts, in prose or in rhyme.

In its fragile beauty, memories reside,

A treasure to cherish, where hearts confide.
