Those Things On My Head

A humorous look at a baby discovering her ears.

Those Things On My Head

What are these things
On the side of my head?
I can’t see them –
Are they red?

The seem to be
Shaped somewhat funny.
I can’t see them –
Are they shaped like a bunny?

What are these things
Right below my hair?
I can’t see them –
Will people stop and stare?

What are these things
I can touch with my hand?
I can’t see them –
Will you help me understand?

What are these things
That allow me to hear?
I can’t see them –
Are they my ears?
