Who could tell me if there’re feathers in an egg?
How come that a raven has the third leg
Instead of tail? How many tails a tadpole has?
Why a dog might be called a sheep?
Why fire is not hot but water likes flowing?
For how far a mountain gives forth a voice?
Does a wheel tread in the worn-down rut?
How come that one eye can hear better
Than another? For how long a finger points?
Where we come to may not be the end?
Why a tortoise is longer than a snake?
Is the carpenter's square is really square?
Why a huge compass does not make circle?
Why does a chisel surround its handle
Instead of the other way round? Why the shade
Of a flying bird does not move itself?
How come that a bay horse and a black ox
Total three heads? Why a white dog
Is black but a black dog is not white?
How come that a motherless calf
Never had its mother? If from a foot-long stick
We every day take the half of it,
In ages it will not be exhausted, but why? . .
Alas, throughout all our lifetime,
Without coming to an end, we just trying
To find the duly answers to these
And other similar questions; what for?!
that is how one learns, and no question is ridiculous
however trivial it may seem.
Always,
Deborah
Why does the chicken cross the road?
