Poetic Thoughts - Grandpa and Gandhi - by C.W. Pruitt II

Grandpa and Gandhi

I was recently thinking about Mahatma Gandhi. I then began thinking about my grandfather. Soon I was thinking about the two of them - Comparing and contrasting them in my mind. The little poem below is a brief summary of my comparison between James G. Pruitt and Mohandas K. Gandhi:

my grandfather
looked like Gandhi
and had character
like Gandhi
but
he was a lot more crotchety
then Gandhi
and that is why
you have
never
heard of him
