right
with my
left hand
but I can't throw
right
with either.
I don't think I learned
right
when I was small
and was taught to throw
right-handed.
So, despite being quite
(b)right,
gym class was a
(f)right
and I am not
light
on my feet.
But now it's
all right.
I've
left
it all behind me!

ha. nice...i tore the ligiments in my wrist my senior year of HS...and had to learn how to wright left so i could write right for my exams, i had left.
This is so much fun .. my youngest son is ambidexterous, I can relate.
Had to read it twice, right! Loved it.
Well, this is a bit of fun for the day! I'm so glad they don't force lefties to be righties anymore :)
Too cute. I especially like the (b)right and (f)right.
Tooooo cute! I consider myself a 'self made Man' I worked at being ambi-dextrous. I can also speak from both sides of my mouth(lol).
I was slightly ambidextrous and leaning more towards left as a child. They made me right handed and now I have horrible handwriting as a result. I have been thinking lately about trying to retrain my left hand into something useful.
That was terrific southpaw :) I love it!!!
clever, clever. Loved it.
Cute, I love the interplay between left and right throughout your poem. Well done.
A great poem. Unfortunately I'm of an age when left handedness was not accepted at school and you were forced to do everything right handed. It didn't pay to be different.
Very cleverly written. Well done
