The View From Down There

Someone posted a topic about women choosing friends of the same height. I can't find the topic so I'm posting my reply here.

This is a poem I wrote about one of my best friends who was very short.

THE VIEW FROM DOWN THERE
By BumbleBeeBoogie
September 26, 1995

A petite women, barely five feet tall,
tired of all the ridiculous questions
about why she grew hardly at all
despite their silly, impractical suggestions.

"Hey Shorty, how's the weather down there?"
they asked with sneering, pompous poses.
My short friend gleefully did declare,
"I see lots of hair in people's noses."

Those tall ninnies with brains not bright
showed their manners to be uncouth,
due no doubt to their excess height
and poor guidance in their youth.
