Asks 437 questions
A day
437 questions
Everyday
A child lives
With their mind
Cracked open
Free to every
Thought
Whim
Fantasy
How many questions did you ask today?
What kind of questions were they?
What time is it?
What's the temperature outside?
Mundane
Boring
Questions
Children ask questions
That stretch the boundaries
Of human knowledge
They ponder things adults
Wouldn't dare to
They dream things beyond
Imaginative limits
A four-year-old will ask
What is this?
For they are not afraid
of being judged for ignorance
A four-year-old will ask
Why?
For they see life with the lense of curiosity
A four-year-old asks 437 questions everyday
