WHY?

 
The perennial question!
 
I think this is actually the first question
most humans learn to ask;
and we never tire of asking it,
which is a good thing
because presumably we'd all still be eating
grass and berries
in caves
if our ancestors had never asked,
"Why?"
or its closely related siblings,
"What if...?" and "Why not...?"
