See-Saw
When his viewpoint is up
She is looking down
When she is full of smiles
He is one big frown
When he is in the air
She is touching the ground
When her eyes are ahead
He is looking around
When he pulls her above
She pushes him below
When he thinks she thought
She knew he would know
When she said, "I saw."
He said, "I see!"
She gently requests
His law will not agree
When he gets low
She becomes high
She wants to stop
He does not comply
When she gets heavy
He becomes light
She says he's wrong
He says he's right
