My name is Aaron, and this is my head, <br />I’m a good boy, that’s what my mom said, <br /> <br />This is my nose, it has two holes, <br />It feels real bad, when I have colds, <br /> <br />These are my eyes, I have two, <br />My mom says, they’re pretty, and blue, <br /> <br />This is my mouth, for candy to go. <br />My mom says, I eat real slow, <br /> <br />This is my tooth, I only have one, <br />One day I’ll have more, that’ll be fun, <br /> <br />This is my arm and this is my hand, <br />I have another one, to play in the sand <br /> <br />This is my tummy, it has a hole, <br />Mom says I eat like a mole, <br /> <br />This is my leg, right here you see, <br />I have another one, right here on me, <br /> <br />This is my foot, there it is right there, <br />This is another one, I think it’s called a pair, <br /> <br />My mom says I have a heart, it’s in here, <br />She says when I’m sad, that’s what makes a tear. <br /> <br />Mom says I have a soul, I don’t know where, <br />I’ve looked every where, even over there,<br /><br />B.J.
