THE ODD CHILD

credit
This is to the child who is poor and different
The child who doesn't always get the best grade
The child who is as skinny as a broom
The child whose nose arrives minutes before he or she gets there.
This is to the child everyone teases.
The child who can't dress up like the rest of the kids
This is to the child who is treated like a step child.
Too fat to fit in
Too short to be noticed
And too tall to be attractive.
Here is to the child whose differences is going to give him
The extra drive to attain success
Here is to attain success
Here is to be attractive.
Here is to the child whose difference is going to give him
The extra drive to attain success
Here is to the child who has arrived.
