Letter Bee

Filled with pride
He delivers the letter
Many have tried
But none have done better

He travels quickly across the land
He holds a letter in each of his hands
Where many have fallen our hero still stands
He is the definition of a Delivery man

Gripped in his fist
He follows a list
Alone on the road
He follows the code

Never turn back
You must see it through
For he does not lack
The courage so true

We never shall quit on a delivery
That is the job of a Letter Bee

*Dedicated to my brother Jim... RIP Bro*

The Post Office takes a lot of flack, Jacob. My brother was a mailman and took his responsibility seriously, much like your "Letter Bee." Very creative! Love, Carolyn
