Description

This large, unused valentine has a paper lace effect and an embroidered silk frame in the centre. The poem reads:

There is a flower which oft unheeded blows

Amidst the splendour of the summer day

And tho' this simple flower no sweets disclose

Yet would it tell thee all I wish to say.

And if were pailed by the foaming sea,

And thou art careless what may be my lot

I'll send that flower a messenger to thee,

And it will whisper thus - Forget Me Not.
