What if he blew and blew,
But the candle flame, true
To disobediance sort review;
And claiming freedom grew,
Brighter and brighter due,
To some magical new
Assignment, based on few
Rules to guide, and will to chew
On observances due
To maturity anew

The rhyming works so well here! The boy and his freedom - loved it.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your appreciation, Petru
ReplyDeleteMuch love
I like your mono rhyme, Gillena. And the idea of a candle’s flame being disobedient, perhaps choosing its own assignments.
