Boys and Girls

By Harshada Reddy Annareddy

They say boys are strong,

And girls are weak,

You know that’s meek,

The real difference is,

Girls have 2 X chromosomes,

And boys have 1 X and Y chromosomes,

So why is this so mean,

They say boys like blue,

And girls like pink,

Does this have a link,

They say girls are good,

And boys are bad,

People are mad,

They say only boys can work,

And girls must do homework,

They say only boys can be pilots,

And girls should not sit in cockpits,

See what conclusion the world has drawn,

This is all I’ve seen,

But now that I’m pouring thoughts out,

Please don’t stand there like scouts,

Let’s work together and make a change,

And increase the world’s range.
