Where did I come from mother?
I asked as a tiny child

Her simple answer
Was God made you
And that is why you are here

Well where did this world come from? I asked
Mother replied, God made it too

Ok, mother, how does it stay up in space?
And why don't we fall off?

Enough of your questions
It's all written down in his book
Everything that we needed to know
If we just study it
He provides the answers
To inquiring minds

I think the title was well thought-out, and the poem was a nice story.  Inquiring minds.... it's actually the title that goes along with the poem that really makes me sit back and think.
Good job on this.

Oh so very true! Inquiring minds...lol, I remember asking those questions too. My biggest one was, if God made us, who made God?  LOL  That's just one of those (it is answered in the Bible), that you have to take on faith.

but I know Who holds the future.

Songbird,

I liked the image of the mother-child relationship in your poem
and the teaching of the truth found in God's Word at an early age.
It is a wonderful thing in my opinion to raise up a child in the ways of God.
