Shrewd to Cooled

A chapter in the book Children young and old

Hey Jude

by Debi Pick Marquette

Even the Odds Contest Winner 

 

So Rude

Kids teased, “Hey Jude"

Mocked, laughed and ridiculed

On playground they would not include

Poor Jude, who felt his shyness misconstrued

His friendly mood changed their fortitude

Then with them, he shared his food

Showed him gratitude

No more 'tude!

Crude
