Example: She bought her inamorato a Valentine's Day card.
Did you know, that Valentine's Day began to be associated with love and romance, in the Middle Ages, largely thanks to the works of poets like Geoffrey Chaucer? By the 14th century, it had become customary to exchange love notes and tokens of affection on February 14, called Valentine's Day for St. Valentine.
AND
She had waited for a sign for seven long, lonely days. Suddenly, a conspiracy of ravens rose cawing in the air. It was time. Nature would take back its own.

I love the history of Valentines Day and the word too! What a fantastic take on the image, Sandra. You said a little in those few words! Xo
Inamorato sounds like a foreign word. No matter. I had an inamorato for 45 years.
Fantastic take on the picture, Sandra!

The day was hot, the air oppressive. Sweat beaded on her forehead and trickled down her temples. Oh, how she longed for her inamorato to bring her an ice-laden pina colada. But he was probably still gazing at that gloomy picture; you know, the one Sandra mused about ravens splitting the air with sound and nature taking back its own. If he doesn’t get back soon a new inamorato might be in the offing!
And all along we thought Hallmark invented the day!
Happy Valentine's Day soon!
I did NOT know that about Valentine's Day! (But I did know that word!)
