Have you ever really wondered why the sky above is blue?
Or marvelled at the honeybee as it flies from plant to plant?
Do you ever stop to question how you do the things you do?
Or why it is that you're unable to do the things you can't?

Have you ever really wondered why the sea itself is blue?
Why a certain piece of rounded glass can magnify or shrink?
How your image in a mirror can be looking back at you?
Which way the water will rotate as it empties from the sink?

How can a runner break a record, passing the finish line?
When the runner who was holding it, is further down the field.
If a picture paints a thousand words, how does it find the time?
How many layers of skin has law, if it can be repealed?

Do you ever really worry which way up the toast will land?
Or stop to watch a spider make such a strong and clever web?
Do you stay to watch your castles, reverting to flattened sand?
And wonder how the moon can make mighty oceans flow and ebb?

Does a falling branch in a wood unseen, actually make a sound?
Do busses wait round the corner so they can arrive in threes?
Would the ball or feather when dropped, be the first to hit the ground?
And do those plastic bags we see, enjoy hanging there in trees?

Some things I like to question, but then others I just accept.
There really isn't time enough to wonder about them all.
Nature has many secrets of which we know where few are kept.
And I think some things we'll never find, or shouldn't know at all.
