Riddle (2008)

I wrote for you a riddle, here
in the pages of my manuscript
but the answer didn't seem quite clear
and then the question gradually slipped
into a jumbled conversation
over a pair of warring nations

but suddenly your voice was there
preventing bombs from touching air
and what was once a history
with insights most profound
became a tale of you and me
making the world go round.
