Weekend Writing: Literary Valentine's Day Cards

Valentine's Day is right around the corner. I hope people still send valentines to their significant other, friends, and family. Whenever I think of Valentine's Day, I'm always reminded of the days in elementary school, when you would bring valentines for every student in your class. They were cute little valentines with candy hearts or a sucker. It felt nice to look inside your bag and see all the valentines. 

As adults, we can still send valentines. It's special to send cards to family and friends. There's nothing quite like opening your mailbox and seeing a card waiting for you inside. You know that your family and friends care about you. I think this is especially important this year with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. It's crucial to remind our loved ones how much we care about them--how much we need them. They need to know that you value your relationship. 

For the purpose of this blog post, I designed five literary-themed Valentine's Day cards you can give to your significant other on the day of "love and romance." You can even give some of these to family and friends, too. Some of the best writing throughout history has been about love, romance, and the strong bond between friends. These lines make you swoon with how eloquent they describe romance. 

Make your special someone swoon with these cards.

Obviously, there are many more beautiful romantic lines from literature that I could feature, but I can only include a few select pieces in this post. Romance is so deeply rooted in literature. Writing, by nature, makes readers feel deeper, love harder, and dream more passionately. 

Give these cards to your special someone this season, and they'll be reminded just how beautiful love can really be.
