ASCII Love

When I first wrote this poem I was completely unaware of ASCII Art. The original is on a piece of graph paper with numbers next to the letters to indicate how many spaces to use when typing out the poem. I really love the fact that it spells out the word LOVE.

Love is a magical word
It can take any broken heart and make amend

It's a good word anyone can use
to be a good friend.

I love how it looks all whispy and it brings you down to the final point.

That is really neat! Was is hard to do in a blog post? Sometimes Blogger makes me really frustrated because the words won't do what I want them to do.
