‘Maybe Richard will find another way. Just tell him, Alice. Tell him that his own Confessor never stopped loving him. And that if he can’t undo the magic, if he can’t return to her then, she’ll be waiting for him, in the Underworld. Forever.’
-Mother Confessor Kahlan Amnell,
Legend of the Seeker

All are shapes we use.
We see them daily, yet appreciate not.
Why, I ask of you?

So used are we to using the shapes
We fail to recognize their significance.
"What is the use?" we ask.
"Shapes are not used in real life.
This is just a class we must pass."

But I say they are used each day.
When we fold a paper, when we write a word,
Any time we shape an object with our own hands.
Even when we move, often we are
Creating shapes in the ground we walk on.

So, I pray you,
Remember the shapes.

I did this as part of a homework assignment in Geometry class. We had to make a wild card, something to do with geometry and shapes.
