TIME WILL TELL THE TALE


What if the child were the hero
In his own story for instance
We all know there is
No story without conflict
So boy are we in luck

Our arrival is wrought 
With conflict from the get go
And there's the rub for how 
Do we mutually determine
Just exactly when that is? 

After dwelling on the matter enough
Consider it personal and recall 
That most useful of maxims,
Silence, believe me, there's a story
And it's a good one.
