The kid had incredible brain power.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

He became more powerful every hour.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Soon, he was creating matter.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

People began to fear and \u00a0scatter.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

He would think of it and it would appear.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Such power caused a lot of fear.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

He would disappear and reappear again.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

If they doubted, he would do it again. <\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

He slipped a couple minutes forward in time.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Move, then return to this time.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

To those watching, he would disappear.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Then, in another spot, reappear.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

He could fly by the power of his mind.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Transfer great distances in a flick of time.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

He could read anyone\u2019s mind.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Control them and keep them in line.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

He could look in the sky, predict the rain.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Yet, through it all, he was not vain.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

He could heal the sick, raise the dead.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Make the girls talk out of their heads.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

People feared him, some tried to kill him.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

They should have known they couldn\u2019t win.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

He became invisible in a twinkle.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

He never aged nor got a wrinkle.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

He could turn water into wine.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Mostly, he did only what was fine.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Nothing was beyond him to do.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Peace on earth became his rule.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

He solved problems for the scientists.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

His mother would give him a giant kiss.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Diseases were eliminated.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Old age was decimated. <\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

It was like Shangri-La here.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

No crime or killing. No more fear.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Then the day came when he was gone.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

He said we knew enough to get along.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

We could do it on our own, you see.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

He had somewhere he needed to be.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

No one heard of nor saw him again.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s hope this is the beginning, not the end.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
