Greeting Cards

I love receiving greeting cards On birthdays or occasions And sending them, as well, Which kind of evens the equations. Yet lately they are hard to find – So many stores are closing And people turn to e-cards, Or that’s what I am supposing. Some local drug stores carry cards, Selections not extensive, But though they’re nice, the problem is That they are quite expensive. Such prices just discourage those Who’d like to send a greeting And losing customers, to me, Seems very self-defeating.

The times, they are a changing. And after I pay my monthly internet bill, I think we've paid enough for our E-Cards. :/ <3 :)

It's a 'vicious circle,' if such a violent phrase can be applied to something as innocuous as a greeting card... I make my own now, a little poem with a sketchy illustration. (I'm no artist,...and ha, ha: I'm no poet either. But the cards seem to be appreciated). :) gw

I'd be willing to bet that more of your cards get saved than store bought ones Gershon. <3 :)

fewer and fewer send cards I guess postage is expensive and e cards can be sent for free but its not the same as getting a card to open on a special day:-) hugs Jan xx
