The Inquisitive Corner

Every child is born a natural scientist, overflowing with curiosity and asking questions by the minute. Too often, those sparkling inquiries are dismissed with dull, lazy brush-offs: “It’s just magic,”or “It’s a miracle.”

So we created The Inquisitive Corner to change that. Instead of settling for myths, let’s explore the real wonders of nature, unpack the mechanics of the universe, and fall in love with the beauty of science!
This is an inaugural poem expressing a small child’s curiosity.

So many questions and one enough answer!!

Tell me, tell me somebody,

Hey you or that buddy,

Why doesn’t talk my Tom teddy?

When colours were given was the water absent?

In the universe, how many galaxies are present?

Tell me, tell me hey you,

Or else give me a clue,

Why is the sky so blue?

Everyday who eats the moon?

Why does the Sun disappear in winter soon?

Please tell me, tell me hey dear,

I’m keeping open my ear,

Why does banyan tree has a scary hair?

Is the only living world on planet Earth?

Why can’t we have a second birth?

Tell me,tell me oh! bro my,

To my question give reply,

Why can’t we jump till the sky?

Is there any living thing in the world who never die?

How does the brain store info read through eye?

The answer to everything is just one reason,

To all rituals and nonsense things it is a prison.

It is not one who blather,

It is one through which first evidence is gathered.

It is one who specifies us with proof,

It is none other than SCIENCE who is all questions roof!

-Anushka.
