There was a little boy, On the week's first day, Coming home from Sunday School And wandering on the way. He scuffed his shoes into the grass And found a caterpillar. He found a fluffy milkweed pod And blew out all the filler. A bird's nest in a tree above, So wisely placed on high, Was just another wonder That caught his eager eye. A neighbor watched his crooked course And hailed him from the lawn. He asked him where he'd been that day And what was going on. "I've been to Sunday School," he said As he turned a piece of sod, And picking up a worm, he smiled, "I've learned a lot from God!" "That's a fine way," the neighbor said, "For a boy to spend his time. "Now if you can tell me where God is, I'll give you a brand new dime." Quick as a flash the answer came, The boy said without complaint, "I'll give you a dollar, Mister, If you can tell me where God ain't!" ~Author Unknown~ |
