Girls And Guys (The Quirks Of) Poem by Mervyn Graham

In the land of girls and guys,
Differences come as no surprise.
From chromosomes to everyday acts,
Here's a look at the fun facts!

Girls have two X's, nice and neat,
While men rock the X and Y complete.
Estrogen makes girls feel bright,
Testosterone gives men their might.

Girls face monthly nature's call,
Men just think they've got it all.
Shopping trips and fashion woes,
Guys and their eternal bros.

Girls can multitask with flair,
Men find socks, but only one pair.
Men love gadgets, things that beep,
Girls want cozy, something deep.

When girls talk, it's heart to heart,
Men grunt, and that's just the start.
Girls can cry at sad old shows,
Men tear up when sports heroes go.

Girls love to chat, solve life's mysteries,
Men? They prefer short-lived victories.
Men and maps, a stubborn mix,
Girls ask for directions, no need for tricks.

But in the end, here's what's true,
Both bring something great to view.
Laughs and quirks in this big old blend,
It's what makes life fun in the end!
