Title:
Some Small Difference
History it's said is the exclusive province of Titans
Only Atlas can move the earth
Or Zeus place claim upon the fickle heart of Mnemosyne
Which no ordinary may enchant
Only the gods are worthy of the grudging nod of Chronos
Only they merit the exalting tribute of Clio's admiring scribe
Or so the notion is argued
However, if I can contrive to make some small difference
if I, poor mere mortal I
Can somehow effect but a ripple in the great golden depths
Of eternity's fathomless sea
If I can invest a single heart with hope, or inspire a child to
A muse's calling,
Then perhaps I, humble as I am, may earn an honorable mention
In Clio's scroll of observance
And through such brief notice garner
A small sunlit corner of fair Elysium
