A novel’s birth

Inspired by an article
Novels’ best beginnings
What would mine be?
Describing a crime book
Espousing a life’s turn
A sci-fi or a romance?
Darkness took a darker view
Child’s chilling nightmares
Three thousand year’s tour
Or
Love’s loom wove a single weft
Would this solidify a thought
That waved a thousand ships’
Wondrous goodbye or hello
To my prize œuvre?
Alas not - lack of storytelling
Skills and desire for a craft
So readily applauded
And admired by me.
