Man is blind to Her true beauty.

Must She tell Him so?

Will Man be deaf as well?
Must She tell Him so?
Will He hear Her speech?

Will Man be deaf as well?
The World will make Man hear.
Will He hear Her speech?
The World will help Her make Man hear.

The World will make Man hear.
The World is small in the eyes of the Universe.

A poem i wrote for one of my classes.
Its Pantoum. The 2nd and 4th lines of a stanza become the 1st and 3rd of the next one.

I am not the best speller in the world. In fact, I'm probably one of the worst. So feel free to tell me of any spelling mistakes or words that don't seem to fit right.

And I'm always open to comments. In fact, I would love for you to tell me what you think. Even if it is a simple "I just love this poem" kind of deal.
