多手 Busy Hands

多手
多手
多手的幼儿

虽然多手
忙碌的复印机
他很忙的
观察我
观察阿妈
观察爷爷
观察爸爸
观察佣人
然后仿照

非常有劲
接电话
搅拌蛋黄
摸播放机
摸电脑
摸笔
摸电视按钮
摸喷水
吻我屁股洞
开关冰箱
开关炉灶
开关风

爷爷推升
他也仿照不完美推升

虽然多手
他非常好奇
他是一个甜蜜幼儿
他是非常有劲帮手
他是有爱心的幼儿

爸爸不懂播放键
他马上按和解释
播放键是在那里。

Busy hands
Busy hands
A pair of busy hands

Though busy hands,
Busy being a copycat
Busy in
Observing me closely
Observing grandma closely
Observing grandpa closely
Observing dad closely
Observing helper closely
Then he becomes a copycat

Enthusiastically
Answer the phone
Stir the egg yolk
Touching DVD player
Touching computer
Touching pens
Touching television buttons
Touching sprayer
Smelling my buttock
Opening and banging the fridge door
Turning the stove knob on & off
Switching the fan on and off

Grandpa push up
He imitates the push up imperfectly

Though busy hands
He is full of curiosity
He is a sweet boy
He is a good help
He is a caring toddler.

Confounded in finding the play button
He shows to his confounded dad
The play button.

This poetry began with, “多手 多手多手的幼儿” as I think of my son’s disquieted hands and fingers. Though he often touches things meant for adult, his curiosity makes him into a capable son. Take care of him is the most difficult tasks due to his active exploration and disquieted mouth full of, “Why?”
