Whenever I receive a love letter or love poem, I am flattered my lover took the time out to write it. I am most touched by the ones that are well thought out and from my lovers heart. When you write a love note, make sure you personalize it as much as possible, to let your lover know you are speaking directly to him or her.

When you write your love letter or love poem, make it original. Buying a card with prewritten words is easy and doesn’t have the same affect as something that has come from you. If you feel you are not poetic, use another poem or letter as a guide and personalize it to suit your special person.

There are poem books in the bookstores and poem sites on the internet. There are many places to get valuable ideas from. Change ideas and words from other places to suit your situation. Add totally original words and lines, if you are so inclined.

You can even make your own card if you have an artistic bend. Add pictures, dried flowers, and scents. Don’t rush. Type it out or use your own handwriting if you know calligraphy or have beautiful handwriting. Look at samples first, and mimic their format.

Leave Your Note where it will be found. It will be a nice surprise for your loved one to find your note, unexpected. Don’t hide it so well that he or she won’t find it! Leave it in a common place that you are sure he or she will go looking. When they find it they can enjoy it all alone.

When you sign your card, use a “Love Name” your Lover calls you. Set the stage for extraordinary closeness and communication later in the day, with this Love note.

Give something additional, not just a card… some cologne, perfume, oils, or any other present you Love would like. Put them together in a beautiful envelope and seal it with a real lipstick kiss.

Let the artist in you roar like a lion. Give cards and gifts often, but not too often. Continue to let it be something special and your Lover will love and cherish you for it.
