Mystery of Life
Hannah Copsey, age 9

If God and I took tea and toast, here are the questions I'd like to ask the most.

Why the sun sets and why the moon comes up?
Why the tide comes in and why the tide goes out?
Why the world turns?
Why the stars come out at night, but not in light?
Why do the trees drop their leaves?
Why don't people get along?
Why do birds have such a beautiful song?

All these things I'd ask of he.
But what would he ask of me?
