Bits to paper

Letters, letters
They are everywhere
Up, down, left,
Right, here, and there

One, by itself
Is significant
More than one,
Is harder to understand

When they come together,
Standing side by side
A word is formed,
By its sight and sound

When those come together
It becomes harder to understand
It makes a sentence,
A combination with a bond

They are important,
Letters really are
Though they are all just
Dots, curves, and bars

Something so simple
Can be so great
Good Luck to humanity
At this rate

For, they have advanced
This far already
They will get very far
Even if they go steady....

Letters, Letters
They are everywhere
But, without you
Life on earth would be bare!

A challenge this was.... I have never really thought that I'd challenge others with writing. I always did really suck and was miscomprehended. I would remember times when teachers would put the "?" mark. I would remember times when my parents would switch verses around. I remember times when I had to scratch out most my sentences and reform my words but not the ideas. This year, the choir girls (jonah, kristine, jena) corrected my paper for NHS, and there were many mistakes. So, to hear that they liked my poem, and whatever made me glad. Being the incompetent, self-centered fool(talking about myself here), you understand right? I wouldn't really say it, but I'm thankful. ^.^

It was good!~

Your poems make up for your literal incapability [which isn't THAT bad]. Your poems are sweet and light---the kinds that makes someone smile.
