I ask you/by gentlegirl

I ask you this question
pray tell me you know
whatever is the matter
and does it really show

I ask you this question
how hummingbirds are afloat
just hanging in the air
do snapdragons wear coats

I ask you this question
bugs lighting the way
do they have a switch
or do they constant play

I ask you this question
doth sun shine at night
do flowers drink the rain
or dandelions die of fright

I ask you this question
the moon floating in the sky
will it fall before our eyes
if not I ask you why

I ask you this question
what makes the grass to grow
are elves running around
or fairies in a row

I ask you this question
who hung the lights afar
they twinkle on and off
and darkness cannot mar

I ask you this question
in silence of the night
do birds still sing to babies
so darkness doth not fright

I ask you this question
is silly you may think
but why are you still reading
this silly rhyming link
