Elementary, my dear Koko
When I ask you how was school
You smile, or frown, or play around
You don't have the patience
To recall the names
of your friends, or teachers
A slight yes here, and a no there
That is all I know of your school
Then I play Holmes
And rummage your bag
Or your pockets or almanac
Do I see some sand on your bag?
So you've been to the park
Again rolling about
Now, I'd need to wash your uniform again
Do I see a toffee wrapper in your pocket?
Must have been someone's birthday
Do I see some paint on your pants?
Some serious painting must be going on
Is that some chutney on your napkin?
So you're sharing food with your friends
When I ask you these
to confirm
You're wide-eyed
in awe
I smile, it's elementary
my dear Koko.
Beautiful can see the emotions
