1. Read a poem, “Why?”.
WHY? by A.T. Veloro There are things I can’t explain, Things that puzzle the mind, Questions for which I need Satisfactory answers to find. Why the dew on the grass? Why do flowers die? Why death of beauteous things? Why, oh why, oh why? Why the night, why the day? Why the lightning’s blinding flash? Why, the wind’s mighty roar? Why, the thunder’s deafening crash? Why do eyes open and close? Why can’t they keep open? And shy do they open when I want Them shut tight in sleep? Why these things I can’t explain; But here I am where destiny brings; My books I read by night and day, Soon to learn the whys of things. |
