1946 Florida Sand In My Shoes Poem

This 1947 postcard captures the mystique of the "Legend of Spanish Moss," a tale woven into the romantic tapestry of the Old South. Draped across ancient oaks, Spanish moss has long enchanted visitors to Florida with its ghostly elegance. According to folklore, the moss grew from the hair of a tragic figure—usually a heartbroken maiden or a lost lover—forever caught in the breeze. Popular in Southern storytelling, the legend added an air of mystery to the swaying gray strands that decorate the region’s trees. This card offers both visual beauty and a whisper of the past, inviting the viewer into a softer, more poetic Florida.

This linen postcard would look great framed, make a wonderful hostess gift, or make an excellent addition to any collection.
