Child

You say a child was better,
The adult is not yours to be.
Well ofcourse father, 
Why will he?
A child can't speak nor protest.
Meekly agrees to everything said.
Ofcourse a child is better,
A pliable, blendable playdoh.
With nothing to know,
Nothing to see.
But for your eyes and your words
Taken to heed.
Ofcourse a child is better, 
Sunset and sunrise begin with you
For he doesn't know any other.
Life begins at 40, 
For a child is not to be.
