Meeting Love Twice Through the Mail

Before the electronic mail we have now
snail mail was the only postal means
write a letter, stick a stamp, envelope sealed
into the postbox it goes my forever dreams

My first love Jean for a year
did write to each other every week
looked forward to that post come
it meant so much without it all's bleak

But then post stopped we dated
fell in love so very very much
got wed for we were the match
but Jean passed away by God's touch

My second love Christine loved mail
regularly we penned to one another
really got to know each other well
so wondered if we could go further

Then I got chickenpox out of the blue
so Christine sent me a get well card
that clicked us so we started to date
got wed 9 months later, our love starred

So mail has a loving touch
shows its hand to a live connect
I can vouch truly for that
twice it helped me, love select

(This is written looking back on mail and it's effect on my love life as it twice had a effectual lasting proof on it.)
