Hand-Held Device
“It’s called a book.”
I hand it to her.
She doesn’t quite grasp
the concept and leafs
through the pages
upside down.
“No, this way.”
I turn it the right way
for her.
She’s just been introduced
to the joys of books.
The kind with pictures.
In later years, just bare words
will entice her.
Happy First Birthday!
