One of the kindergarten teacher's Chinese-Canadian students was about to get a new little brother or sister. The teacher asked every few days if the blessed event had happened yet. The little boy was getting more excited as the days rolled by. Finally, one day the teacher asked her usual question, and the child broke into a big smile and nodded.
"Well, what was it?" the teacher asked.
The little boy, full of excitement and wonder, blurted, "Chinese!"

In the dim and distant past
When life's tempo wasn't fast
Grandma used to rock and knit,
Crochet, tat, and baby-sit.
When her kids were in a jam
They could always count on gram.
In an age of gracious living,
Grandma was the gal for giving.
Grandma now is in the gym,
Exercising to keep slim,
She's off touring with the bunch,
Taking clients out to lunch.
Driving north to ski or curl,
All her days are in a whirl.
Nothing seems to stop or block her,
Now that grandma's off her rocker!

Today, upon a bus,
I saw a girl with golden hair.
I envied her, she seemed so gay,
And I wished I was as fair.
When suddenly she rose to leave,
I saw her hobble down the aisle.
She had one leg and used a crutch.
But as she passed, she gave a smile.
Oh, God, forgive me when I whine.
I have 2 legs, the world is mine.
I stopped to buy some candy.
The lad who sold it had such charm.
I talked with him, he seemed so glad.
If I were late, it'd do no harm.
