I discovered once again today,
yet another child savant poet.
A mere kid of 21 with a brain
and old soul, the size of Texas.
I say another 'cause there appears
to be so far over a dozen.

Who are these Wiz Kids and just
what Planet are they springing from?
What race of superior beings produced them?

It is not for me to reason why,
but to just keep on reading.
Makes this old horse want to
throw away his pen. But instead
I think I will try to learn from them.

Let the children lead, all we must do
is follow.
Inspired by finding the words of Jillyan A.  . .  . Among others'.
