Child (monologue)

"Take me on a journey!" She cried. "What ails you my dear?" Questioned the friendly face. "Ignorance," She replied smoothly "Why you are only a child, nothing should concern you but the shoes on your fragile feet and the threads that cover your pale skin," "Yet, my existence is based upon the same values and purpose as yours," "What might that be?" "Wisdom, faith and hope," "My dear child, do not speak such rubbish, your mother would surely put you to bed if she heard!"
Silence interlude the room, the child was staring at her with the eyes of a much older complexity.
"Wisdom to be wise, faith to be faithful and hope to be hopeful," The maiden was shocked, how was this little girl to know such things? Surely she was possessed. "Where would you like to journey to child?" "The stars to inspect eternity, or perhaps the caves of preeminent mountains that dock on the other side of bay, maybe set sail and discover new terrain!" "Have you fever my dear?" The maiden replied terrified, inspecting the girl's porcelain face.
"Does the sky question the clouds that cross it or the stars that consume it?"
"No, it merely accepts its fate" "I think you are finally comprehending my words,"
The small girl replied with a grin. "You confuse me child, I struggle to keep up with you," "You lack imagination and independence," "You lack common sense," The maiden replied rudely. "Common sense is useless without its owner's personal interpretation, this is mine," Replied the girl smugly.
