The class was in session,
The subject was art.
The paint went everywhere
As the children splashed it,
All over the paper, walls ceiling, floor.
The teacher walked round
Looking at each creation,
A house here,
Countryside there.
Pets and parents,
Friends and toys.
All manner of things,
Subjected to the rigours
Of the children’s creative minds.
Then she came to the last one,
The teacher had no idea
What this creation was.
So the artist was asked,
“What are you painting?”
“God” the young lady replied,
“But nobody knows what God looks like”
Said the teacher.
“You will when I have finished this!!”
Said the girl.

Oohh heehee. I may have heard that one before. But a fine write again G/F. As in one hymn:
'Thou art a sun without a sphere' and
'Thy place is everywhere'.
