Bent

Bent knees if you please! They've always been this way. No doubt about it, I stagger along like a sailor in a storm! Far be it from me, I live too far from the sea. So, I have bent knees, The children do tease. I shiver and shake, Too much teasing, I can't take! I can get from point A to B, Without anyone teasing me! Finding my way, Can result in a little time. People offer to help me, Check to make sure I dine. Too much teasing you see, Can make me crabby! Then I hoped on a horse, All is not lost! I fit perfectly, No more teasing for me!

THANK YOU, IAM FOLLOWING A TRAIN OF THOUGHT THAT HAS EVOLVED AROUND CHILDREN WHO EXPERIENCE TEASING AND HOW THEY HAVE SURVIVED.

Dear Kim, Your playful poem about embracing your unique traits is both charming and relatable. What a delightful way to celebrate the quirks that make us who we are. I loved how your journey from enduring teasing to finding acceptance, even on the back of a horse, is wonderfully uplifting. Keep shining your light and inspiring others with your words! - Blessings, Daniel
