Le Petite Poem by RAVIKIRAN ARAKKAL

He was three and half feet,
From the ground, with short
Arms and feet, getting
Quizzical and insolent looks
From many, also getting
sympathetic feelings,
Both he neither needed
Nor savoured, but did
He wish for a smack
From a beautiful damsel,
And dreamt about nuptials,
He could only dream of.
One day he met a damsel
Of three feet, aware of
His shortness and comings,
He fell in love with the one
Of his own kind and married.
Despite his fears his kids
Were tall and normal
Making him on of happiest.
