Lost in Translation: The Decline of Handwritten Letters

Updated: Mar 16, 2023


The decline of written letters, a loss we can't deny,

A sacrifice of emotion and personal touch, left to die.

Gone are the days of nib and ink, as we type with ease,

But we've lost the charm and intimacy, a heartfelt breeze.


A scrawled note, holds so much more than meets the eye,

A glimpse into a soul, a personal connection, soaring high.

Each stroke of a pen, unique like a fingerprint,

A timeless treasure, forever in print.

Remember when we'd send a postcard from a far-off shore,

The excitement of receiving news, that we could touch and hold?

Nowadays, we send a message with a single click,

Instant gratification, but what did we miss?

The feeling of anticipation, opening a sealed envelope,

Waiting for an answer back, our hearts begin to glow.

So let us not forget, the power of the written word,

With a pen and paper, our emotions can be heard.

A love declaration, written with passion, in a lover's hand,

Or a condolence note, offering comfort to a troubled land.

A birthday card, with memories and well wishes, written with care,

These treasures, filled with meaning, a personal touch to share.

So let us not surrender, to the fast pace of our time,

For the beauty of a cursive dispatch, is worth more than any rhyme.

For though our world may change, and technology may rise,

The soul of a handwritten letter, will never truly die.
