Poor Child

Poem of the Day:

Poor Child

College Professor:
Such rawness in a pupil is a shame.
Lack of preparation in the high school is to blame.

High School Teacher:
Good Heavens, what crudity; the boy's a fool!
The fault, of course, is in the grammar school.

Grammar School Teacher:
From such stupidity may I be spared;
They send them up to me so unprepared.

Primary Teacher:
Kindergarten blockhead! And they call
that preparation. Worse than none at all.

Kindergarten Teacher:
Such lack of training never did I see;
What kind of woman  must the mother be?

The Mother:
Poor helpless child - he's not to blame,
His father's folks are just the same.
