WHERE GOD AIN'T!!!!!
And on the week's first day,
He was wandering home from Sunday School,
And dawdling on the way.
He scuffed his shoes into the grass;
He found a caterpillar;
He found a fluffy mildweed pod,
And blew out all the "filler."
A bird's nest in a tree o'er head
So wisely placed on high,
Was just another wonder
That caught his eager eye.
A neighbor watched his zigzag course,
And hailed him from the lawn;
Asked him where he'd been that day,
And what was going on.
"I've been to Bible school, "he said,
And turned a piece of sod.
He picked up a wiggly worm and said,
"I've learned a lot of God."
"M'm a very fine way," the neighbor said,
"for a boy to spend his time."
"If you'll tell me where God is,
I'll give you a brand new dime."
Quick as a flash his answer came!
Nor were his accents faint.
"I'll give you a dollar, Mister, if
You'll tell me where God ain't"
