I’m using my eyes to see all around
    And I’m so glad that I’ve got my sight.
Look at our world, at the colours we see -
     So pleasant and so very bright.

​

I’m using my ears to hear many things
    From the song of a bird to a sneeze,
And listen - I hear the sound of a plane
    And the soft gentle buzzing of bees.

​

I’m using my feet to walk down the road,
    And to run with my friends and to play,
But these little feet get to feel very tired,
      When I have been playing all day.

​

I'm using my fingers to touch and to feel
     And the nerves tell my brain such a lot:
I easily recognize things which are cold,
      And are wary of those which are hot.

​

I'm using my tongue to recognize tastes 
    And distinguish the sour from the sweet.
I know what is yummy and that which is not
    And can then choose the best things to eat.

​

I’m using my hands to clap to a beat
     And to do many other things too -
For without any hands my life would be strange
    And I can’t think whatever I’d do.
 
I’m using my mouth to say many things
    And I’m sure that you all like to speak, 
And a world without speaking? Oh goodness me no!
     For you children, that world would be bleak!!

​

I'm happy I'm human and can do many things,
     And I know that you children are too.
With the human attributes that each of us has,
     There are so many things we can do.
