Has Anyone Seen the Fourth Graders
Has anyone seen the fourth graders lately?
They arrive in public built in full grown men and women foundations
wearing adult shoes in sizes eight, nine and ten.
They make me feel dwarfish,
not petite, since I weigh more now than
I did when I delivered children, but I weigh more than most of them.
I know three who are outstandingly large - could be
sumo wrestlers if they take women, as they are all females.
Has anyone seen the fourth graders lately?
Be prepared to feel small and dwarfish.
