Because , Is Not An Answer
The children...
o-h-h , such beautiful children ,
all in their starting block's to begin the race ,
alway's with joy , and a smile on their face .
simplicity is their inquisitive nature ,
" what's that " , they may ask...
you respond impatiently ,
" it's nothing , you'll understand when you get older "
" why ?? " with a tilted head , they ask again ,
" because " you say without a clear answer ,
" but , why ?? " they say with appealing eye's
'" BECAUSE " you respond , impatiently again...........
impressions....
especially to a young mind ,
working overtime trying to understand ,
their mind's like a sponge
soaking up water
and no matter how hard you squeeze
impatiently , of course...
their at the ready to sop up more....
So........before you get mad at them
and tell them that " BECAUSE "
is not an answer........
think to yourself ,
how many time's did you answer them with " BECAUSE "..........
