I'm just going out for a moment by Michael Rosen

I'm just going out for a moment
Why?
to make a cup of tea.
Why?
because I'm thirsty.
Why?
because it's hot.
Why?
because the sun's shining.
Why?
because it is summer
Why?
because that's when it is.
Why?
why don't you stop saying why?
Why?
Tea-time. That's Why.
High-time-you-stopped-saying-why-time.
What?

I love this poem I had it in a book of poems as a kid and it's one of them that I always remember!
