Yes, the twins! I just had to write something up for them!

Another poem that I made just a few hours ago:

The Knight in Blue

The knight in blue
Crinkles cradled his smiles
Noble and true
His face beaten by a tempest of trials
Yet life filled his frail body to the brim
Emanating light to others
So blind, so hateful, so hopeless, so grim
They couldn’t see friends, enemies, lovers, nor brothers
Suddenly he would ignite the torch
A candle of wisdom for those who would simply grasp it
Or a blaze of fury for those who would underestimate its scorch
He kept the signal fire lit
That could never quite clear the haze
But always the goal shown bright
He kept the world going with a simple phrase
A spout of truth that could settle any plight
He was a sky with two half moons
We thought him master of the tide
So, we never expected the monsoons
That swept him aside
He was a knight that kept everyone believing
And beneath the shiny blue armor, we forgot
A human stood breathing
And we should remember what he’s taught:
Always we’ll have to choose between what is easy and what is right
For it is our choices that show what we truly are
Alone we cannot win the struggle of life’s fight
Because only united can we go far
Truth is a beautiful and terrible thing,
And should therefore be treated with great care
Only with acceptance and understanding can truth be freeing
Only with a broad perspective can we do what’s fair
Remember, death is but the next great adventure
Let us step out into the night and pursue that flighty temptress
For the knight who was worth every lecture
And always remember that the dead we loved never truly leave us
