Definition: A lid.
Alright class, settle down and let’s take a look! That’s a perfectly good definition from the dictionary – “A lid.” But "covers" is a little more than just a simple top, you see. Let's think about it like this: Imagine a book, filled with tales so sweet, It needs a cover to protect it, complete! Or maybe a blanket, warm and cozy bright, That covers you up on a chilly night. “Covers” can mean many things, my dears, you’ll find, It's like wrapping something – keeping it confined! It could be covering your ears with a hat, Or covering a painting, just like that! So, while "lid" is part of the meaning, true, “Covers” means to protect and shield for you. Does that make sense? Any questions about this rhyme and its meaning? Let’s discuss!
