Atlas holds the world up
Or so the legend holds
If that’s true then Atlas
Is truly worthy of love

To her who is worthy of such
I address this note
In the hopes she will understand
The words which I have wrote

Here I give my dedication
But swear I not at all
For I know well what I can give
And white doth refuse

The greyest witch is still a disguise
Though darkness lurks ‘neath shining eyes
I, understanding must love her
And wish to dry her, my sister’s, eye

Know ye not what you will gain
When you open soul to soul
That is I, worthy of love
I, myself, my whole

Now I close my letter
My first, My final note
In hope you will remember
It t’was I to you who wrote

This a simple letter of love
Though love’s not simple at all
Hoping you will grow and gain
Hoping WE will grow and gain

The wings of shining dove
Sing now peaceful love
No more tear my heart
Final and first letter, delivered

So do we part?

Or do we come again?

"Be Strong and Always Remember what made you you." Earl

"Ooo!!! Ooo!! I know! I know! um...he he" Earl
(Yes I am crazy)

Good poem... love the reference to Atlas also, but my favorite verse was:
"Now I close my letter
My first, My final note
In hope you will remember
It t’was I to you who wrote"
It seems to sing.

I am a broken toy,
Of no use to anyone,
But if you fix me up,
I'm sure we'll have some fun.
