The Shapes That Surround You
Triangle, triangle, where can you be?
What do we look for and what do we see?
I'm a sail on a boat or a hanger for your coat
I have three angles and three straight sides
Circle, circle, where can you be?
What do we look for and what do we see?
I'm a wheel on a skate, a clock or a plate
I curve around in an endless line
Square, square, where can you be?
What do we look for and what do we see?
I'm a check on a dress or a board to play chess
With four right angles and four equal sides
Oval, oval, where can you be?
What do we look for and what do we see?
I'm the path of the moon or the head of a spoon
An elliptical shape, with the curve of an egg
Rectangle, rectangle, where can you be?
What do we look for and what do we see?
I'm a dollar, a door, or a basketball floor
With four right angles and four straight sides
Triangle circle and square
Oval and rectangle too
As you go through the day pause on the way
And see all the shapes that surround you
