CAN YOU TELL?
*' So many things I want to know: What holds the moon in place ? Why does the sun neglect at night To show us his face? Why don’t he come from out the clouds At night instead of day? For then it is we need him most; Tell me, some one, I pray. Where is the reservoir so large That holds the rain and snow ? How can it rest upon the clouds? Does anybody know And why is it we don’t all fall From off this earthly ground, , When we are turned quite upside down As we go rolling round? And many more such questions yet I’ll ask you, if you please; But take your time, for I shall wait Till you have answered these.
