Daily mobile musings : The Post box

 That quaint red box at the end of the street with a flap that said next clearance by 5:30 pm or whatever.

How faithfully they were delivered ...carrying messages of love and longing...of loss and hope... of news good and bad...

And they came affixed with the postal  stamps...

And because there were stamps there were stamp collectors...
