Like a good boy scout, I was told no doubt
To whistle and smile, at the same time
So, I tried every day, to make my mouth play
But, I still can’t do it, in my prime
Babies can hear and feel, seek and see
Drink and eat, and poo and pee
Create a gesture, alerting me
Of my immediate dismissal
Then walk and talk, count everything
Clap their hands, and dance and sing
Before they have any inkling
To “Poo-tee weet weet” whistle
Burp, fart, gurgle, giggle, and wheeze
Cough, sniff, hiccup, yawn, and sneeze
‘It’s me’ all noises you make, imply
Except for the sound, we use for disguise
