I know a curious little boy.
Who is always asking "Why?"
Why this, why that, why then, why
now?
Why not, why by-the-by?
He wants to know why wood should
swim.
Why lead and marble sink,
Why sun should shine and wind should
blow
And why we eat and drink.
He wants to know what makes the
clouds
And why they cross the sky,
Why sinks the sun behind the hills
And why the flowers die
