Door mail boxes, Portugal


Postcard IDPT-363613
Country: Portugal

This is a real 'post' theme! Oh, would like to have a mail box like anyone from these. But now I only have standard mailbox on the first floor of our multi-storey building. Once, I'll have an own house... :)

By the way, this card also contains a poem (in Portuguese and English!):

This is not my love, 
It's another one much smaller, 
That I summoned from Oporto 
In the wings of a little bird
(c)Eugenio de Andrade

As usual Portuguese postcard has interesting stamps:

Magic fairy tale


Postcard IDRU-2077728
Country: Russia

This is one card from my collection of beautiful cards. I like cards with some magic on them. And I believe in fairy tales, yeah :)

I've tried to find some information about author of this card and discovered that this card is painted by Russian artis Polina Yakovleva.

The backside of the card contains a poem. As usual here is my amateur translation:

Night is deep. So far for the dawn.
Lights are burning dimly far away.
I lost the input keys.
The door will not be opened, knock in the door, do not knock in the door.

Meanwhile there is interesting Chinese stamps:

A butterfly with poem written by A. Fet


Postcard ID: RU-1987930
Country: Russia

Butterflies are my passion :)
The poem on this card was written by Russian poet Afanasy Fet:

You're right. An outline of the air
I'm so sweet.
My whole velvet with him alive by blinking -
Only two wings.

Do not ask: Where did?
Why rush?
Here I light the flower down
And now - breathe.

For how long, without purpose, without any effort
I want to breathe?
That's it now, flashing, Raskin wings
And fly away.
