If my book were a child,
I would think it most darling
for nudging me with ideas while only
half-conceived.
“I hope you look like me,”
I would tell it with fondness.
For this unborn book would carry my name.
And if my book were a child,
I would think it most naughty
for exerting a will of its own while only a
young draft.
“Who taught you such sass?”
I would demand with a threat.
For it was putting its author and her wits to shame.
And if my book were a child,
I would think it most stubborn
for taking on a life and a look of its own
But if my book were a child,
I would be most proud
for what it became and what it helped me become.
