The Little Boy and the Old Man

 Said the little boy, "Sometimes I drop my spoon.
"
Said the old man, "I do that too.
"
The little boy whispered, "I wet my pants.
"
"I do that too," laughed the little old man.

Said the little boy, "I often cry.
"

"

"
And he felt the warmth of a wrinkled old hand.

"I know what you mean," said the little old man.
