“Do you know who created God?”
And I was like, Oh my God!
The angelface next door
let her imaginations soar
“Mommy said He created all,
but he too must have been small
Played like us and jumped around”
I sank, as she spoke her mind out aloud

Then, an outpour of innocence,
That drove me into silence
“Ma’am I finished the race, fine
The first three names aren’t mine
Please could you tell me my position?”
Asked my student, with zero inhibition
The answer was easy, the inquiry – unique
“Next time child”, was all I could speak

We the ‘adults’, self -proclaimed experts
Oh! How smoothly we intend to divert
The unthought of ideas, kids naively pose
Ironically we act unaffected, while it shows
That deep down it pricks our wherewithal
To yield answers, so we hem and haw
Instead of pulling in ears to their wonder
One day maybe, we’d put forth
“Let’s find this out together!”
