    Postal Princess

    Lazy summer afternoons
    I would climb to my perch.

    Hot, sun-baked, metal
    seared my skin.

    I didn't mind
    I was queen of the block,
    for the moment.

    Sitting on my perch,
    I watched the world go by.

    Others tried to challenge my position,
    but I emerged victorious.

    I was the Mistress of the Mailbox,
    the Postal Princess
    I reigned supreme.

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
