I Wonder
By: Tabitha Lynn Cowan
Oh I wonder, I wonder,
Why is the sky blue?
I wonder, I wonder,
How do I tie my shoe?
Oh I wonder, I wonder,
Why is snow white?
I wonder, I wonder,
Why does Mommy say eat every last bite?
I wonder so much about the world around me,
Why you ask, because I am a mere child of only three.
I want to grow big and strong,
And have a life that is so long.
But I hear Mommy crying late at night,
And to see her cry is a terrible sight,
She cries because of what the doctors say.
She says they tell her soon angels will come to take me away.
My poor lil body is sick and dying,
And I am so tired of crying.
Oh I wonder, I wonder,
What makes a tree?
I wonder, I wonder,
Why did this happen to me?

This is one that I still have yet to figure out where the idea came from. None of my children have ever been deathly sick and none of my friends children have either. I find a lot of time that if I just sit down with a pen and paper stuff just comes out. Not all of it makes any sense, but every once in a while something like this one comes out.
