What is This & What is That
“What is this?” the little child says.
“That is the grass.” The big man says.
“ooo, what is that?” the little child says.
“This is a tree.” The big man says.
“What is this?” The little child asks.
“That is the stream.” The big man answers.
“What is that?” The little child asks.
“This is a cat tail.” The big man answers.
“What is this?” The little child says.
“That is our reflection.” The big man says.
“What is that?” The little child says.
“This is us.” The big man says.
“What are we?” The little child says.
“We are father and son.” The father says.
