Dear TopCat and Pony,
I do not know who you are
just that you have the greatest adventures
over castletops and solving mysteries
in caves
you come in the mail
with envelopes filled with numbers
and catalogs with names
that are not mine.
You are mine.
you remind me
I matter
even when others
do not seem to notice
my secret admirers
letters in blue ink,
printed to disguise Mother's handwriting
I will pretend to believe,
just like the Easter bunny,
long after knowing
you did not "exist"
afraid if I let on
you might stop being real.
I miss you, TopCat, take care of Pony,
Please write again soon.
love,
Katie
