From Head to Toe, 16



Head to Toe:
Boning Up on the Bones of the Body

Skull (o): ear 1: malleus

A small bone in the middle ear—
The malleus, its name.
Vibrations are its task—to pass
Them on—yes, that’s the game!

The ear drum is adjacent, and
It throbs with telling waves,
And in our brain those waves are sounds—
From our ears’ tiny caves.
