There once was a child
questioned everything she did
her parents admonished her
for peering into the workings of the world,
but the child
poor child
couldn't possibly understand
what did she do wrong,
and the wise old man said to her that
t'was not her fault
for 'tis the world
who should be punished
for the fault often lies
not in the doing
but in the way we see the doing.

- Comment from author about the poem: A child's innocent questions should never be shot down. Their curiosity instead should be nurtured to develop them into good persons.
