A little girl sings:
“Dresses and laces, the pettier the better;
Pearls and diamonds, the shiner the better;
Candies and chocolates, the sweeter the better;
Homes and houses, the bigger the better;
The world is fair and square, for I have been told;
Though it rains and snows, my dream will shine through it all.”
An old lady chants:
“Tops and bottoms, the simpler the better;
Bones and hearts, the stronger the better;
Veggies and fruits, the fresher the better;
Friends and friendships, the truer the better;
The world is NOT fair and square, for I have lost my child.
Though it still can be beautiful, through the reflections of my broken heart.”
