What is a baby?
A baby is something
To be cared for.
That’s not all
Of course, there’s more.
A baby is very,
Very small.
If you glance over him,
You can hardly see him
At all.
Some people say he’s nothing
but a child.
But that doesn’t mean
You can treat him wild.
A baby is very,
Very small,
But someday he’ll be
Very, very tall.
All through this poem,
I’ve called it a he.
But I must tell the truth,
It really is a she.
