The characters we write
They dance They sing
They taunt They cheer
The characters we write
In through reality's keyhole they peer
Before imaginative birth
They were all around us
Sometimes... Mostly in us
They were our thoughts our voice
The people we loved and hated and missed
Our characters
Our gifts to readers
Our brain child's
Delirium of perfect beings
Crafted from bits and pieces
Fitting in place and time
In the stories we write
