I tucked my little girl in to bed
And this is what my little girl said,
“My teacher said I am a bean! She did!”
“What kind of bean,” I asked, then said,
“A kidney, a Lima, a navy or red?
A lentil, a French, or Great Northern instead?”
“None of those!” my little girl smiled,
Then proudly she stood tall and said,
“A Huuna bean is what I am…
Or so I think my teacher said…”
“Get back in bed, my little bean
It’s time to close your eyes and dream
And yes I think I finally see
Is ‘Human Being’ what you are?”
Her face shone brightly, like a star
“You’re right! That’s it!”
She got in bed,
“A Huuna bean, just like I said!”
