Aesop's Fable
Eliot Theodore Schechter
About this work: Aesop, a traveling story teller, tells fables with animals that talk. He has been arrested, and brought to trial out of fear that children will believe their pets should be able to speak.
Composed for the Opera in a Month (OIM) challenge, It was not one of the winning compositions,........ though I think it should have been.
