Why? Why? Why?

Why?
Why?
Why?
Full of why?

Why?
Why?
Why?
Why again?

Why
Are you
Always
Full of
Why?

Why?
Why?
Why?
Why again?
Speechless
Oh, my ears.
Scratching my head
Cracking my head
Cracking my brain
Oh, my brain.

My toddler has been asking lots of why since four months ago. Now, his ‘why’ questions are increasing in frequency until I’m rendered speechless and cracking my head. My ears do feel tired, but I try my best to answer it repeatedly.

Toddler’s Actions List

CRACK!
The cot is damaged!
He almost falls . . .

BANG!
The baby gate falls down!
Just with his two hands . . .

CRASH!
The locked kitchen door breaks!
Thank God, the door doesn’t hit him . . .

Puff! Puff!
Reddish at cheeks are neatly applied!
Oh, my mum let him use hers . . .

CLASH!
The television rack breaks!
His butt landed onto the floor . . .

BUM!
Head knocks onto the door!
He just smiles and walks away . . .

Whoof! Whoof!
He is somersaulting on his cot!
Giving a smile then he grins . . .

SCREECH! SCREECH!
The sofa is pulled out and pushed back!
He does so happily . . .

His strength is as strong as a horse . . .
His strength is as strong as a bull . . .

As I was contemplating my toddler’s action for this year and the list of broken things at home, the above poetry is birthed out.
