A HEADS-UP ON USING YOUR HEAD
A head is the most amazing part.
It can send impulses to the heart.
It’s available to use in every season.
It can think, invent and even reason.
The scull protects its fragile brain
An umbrella shelters it from the rain.
It houses what is called gray matter.
And helps you balance when on a ladder.
When winter winds won’t seem to stop
Fuzzy warm caps are worn on top.
It supports an industry obsessed by hair
But also shines when heads are bare.
It holds your eyes, nose mouth and ears
And may even glisten with alligator tears.
African heads have practical plans.
They use their heads to free their hands.
They balance a bag, a chicken a box
And use their heads on all their walks.
