What Does Anu See?

Lavanya Karthik

Anu loves to look at things,
big things and small.
Houses on hills,
ants on a wall.

Things in the kitchen,
things on the shelf.
Things in the garden,
things on herself.

Anu sees patterns
and shapes everywhere,
nothing at all can escape her stare!

Spots on a ladybird,
circles in trees,
shapes made by people,
shapes made by bees.

Lines on a leaf, just
like lines on her hand.
The marks of her feet
in wet seaside sand.

Waves in the water,
waves in her hair.
Mushrooms on tree
trunks, birds in the air.

Words in a book that
can take her to places,
full of new colours,
new stories, new faces.

Things of the colour that
she loves best - RED!
The three wiggly hairs on
her brother Boo's head.

Sprinkles on the cake
Daddy baked today,
like the stars that twinkle
at her from far away.

Rabbits in clouds
floating up in the sky.
Elephants in shadows -
come, give it a try!

Anu is happy with the
things that she sees.
Do you also see what
little Anu sees?
