Comment from Bill Schott
This is a fun poem about questions and answers that we come up with during the course of our uneven education. The items we think need answering are typically not what everyone wants us to know.

I think Sawyer ought to know all of this very soon. He is definitely an inquisitive fellow, I can tell. Beautiful little piece that put a smile on my face.

Comment from Janie King
He just makes you want to take a squeeze him and give him a big kiss. The poem is delightful. Krystal's husband went off the deep end this morning and I have her and the children with me,. Great poem. God loves you and I do too.

Thank you so much, Janie. I appreciate your generous sixth star.
I do hope you are keeping yourself safe because you're of no use to anyone if you get hurt. Brooke :-)

Hi Brooke,
I hope he learned to do it in a non-destructive manner! Another lovely poem, embracing all those questions children just love to ask and we adults struggle to answer ...

Comment from mermaids
Nobody knows why fairies glow is my favorite line,it shows the whinsy and fantasy of the poem. You have a smooth flow of lines that connect with each other, in addition to smooth rhyming of words. This is a fun poem to read out loud.

Comment from Janine Ellis-Fynn
I enjoyed reading this delightful poem which so well captures the way a young child thinks. It is simply charming and Sawyer looks like an absolute bundle of joy and mischief!

Janine, thanks so much. When he is being mischievous, which is often, Miranda calls him her little shnookems :-) Brooke
Comment from Margaret Snowdon
Nobody's shared why rivers bend
or where I'll find the rainbow's end,
or where a falling star might go,
but somebody thinks I ought to know.
A wonderful rhyming poem, Brooke - with a lovely sing-song
rhythm to it. He's so adorable.
Just popped in for a few mins. Was shocked to hear about Pam - she gave no clue that she was suffering - I can hardly grasp the fact that she's gone - she'll be sadly missed.
Rich will be home from Athens this weekend, and on Sunday
there'll be 15 of us, plus the two dogs - so, as you can guess, I'll be doing a great deal of cooking - a hot buffet they can help themselves to - and hopefully, weather permitting, we can all spill out into the garden.
Miss you.
Margaret

Comment from Kingsland
I think this works to fold. For either a child or an adult. This poem has a great message line for any age. It flows very freely and almost reads itself for me. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this excellent piece of poetic art... John

Comment from Shirley E Kennedy
Somebody thinks his grandmother is a very wise lady who knows the answer to everything. Enjoy the loving bond which grows as you seek and explore possibilities together.
A touching and pensive poem which captures the blind faith children have in those they love and trust.
Beautifully told in mixed meter and perfect rhyme.
