Ankh
is a little boy with many questions
Sometimes he has the answers.
On the thoughts he ponders some think he is a wonder
|

Often
he would sit under his favourite tree
Feeling the night breeze as he watches the stars
Seeing objects blinking from far
|
 |

|
In
the light of day
He gazes at the people in his way
The little things we humans do
|

|
The
patterns of living he loves to view
He likes to watch with a smiling view
His Mother taught him not to be rude

One
day while sitting on a bench
He was fixing his bike with a monkey wrench
This stranger asked if he wanted a drink
|

He
said no thanks in a blink
"No I do not wish to have a drink.
Especially something made of milk."

The
stranger, she sat down on the bench
And said, "It's a beautiful day, God gives us strength."
Ankh is only nine so he holds his pride inside

The
lady continued to speak ignorancefrom between her teeth
No longer does her present sweet
Ankh is ready to move his feet

Almost
finished fixing the bicycle seat
As Ankh got ready to go
This stranger wanted to know
|

"You
donąt believe in God... this is shown.
A child your age should not be alone
You should play games with other children you meet."
|

The
stranger told she was the new female priest
Then she said God loves all wild Child
She said to Ankh you needed God inside
|

"Come
and play with the other children, you'll be fine.
I will teach you about Jesus and Mary too.
You'll be fine I will teach you what to do."

Talking
back to an adult
Often this is viewed as rude
He thanked her for her time and views
|
|
|
Page

|
Ankh
smiled as bided excuse
Later while watching the evening stars
In his journal he wrote his views
|

|
Humans
judging intelligence because of age and size
Religions of the time in blind
Children or sheep(s) drone with silent weep
|
 |

|
Not
for this child of wise
For he knows the words of lies
Games of crimes teaching Children lies
|
|
|
Page
17
|
Humans
killing each other on all sides
Using religion of God to control the land
Their destruction of nature never done
|
 |
|
Page

|
This
should not concern a child
If parents don't
teach about the time
Children grow up in a state of blind
|

Ankh
is wise for his age and size
He cares not for nursery rhymes
He knows the figment of God comes form the imagination of men
|

Smiling
in his sleep under the tree
He was awaken by gentle hands that lift him safely
Your dream was long she asked friendly
|
 |

"Do
you remember the story?"
She said dreaming is living memories
Some are new and some are old

Ankh's
mother is a wise old soul
The knowledge she shares most don't know
She teaches history to the professors who want to know
|

The
University for Teachers is Ankh's home
His Mother is Director of Ancient Knowledge
To Ankh she is worth more than gold

Ankh
keeps a journal to write some of the stories she told
Some day he would like to be a teacher worth more than gold
To share stories no one else knows
