Why I Stand Short

WHY I STAND SHORT
Since I was born and grew to be, so that’s why I stand Short!

But it does not bother me, in fact I feel blessed!

Blessed because:
I am able to go through most doors and even some windows.
I was able to stand at the front of most queues be it the classroom or elsewhere.
So standing short definitely has its benefits.

On the other hand I am proud to say that
I STAND SHORT -
SHORT of some greed and some cruelness,
SHORT of most deception and most jealousy,
SHORT of almost all wickedness and all hatred.
That’s why I’m proud to say 
I STAND SHORT!!
