Though defiant from the beginning
And rebellious to the end,
Such may be selectively compliant
And use sweet words to commend. |

Bouncing babies
Are just cute as they can be,
And adults love to give full attention
To the busy little bees. |

Apparent indifference
To what other's say and do,
Marked by avoidant eyes
And abhorrence of what's new. |

Toying with emotions
Soon gets out of hand
As the body keeps on growing
And the child is the man. |

But ever two steps behind,
Such can learn wisdom
As well as any mind. |

Kindreds and tongues and nations
Offer fruitful ways to be against,
Because this self-possessed loner
Nitpicks any difference sensed. |
