Looks Can Be Deceiving

This is a poem about a woman I play ping pong with every Saturday. She is 93 years old, can barely see, yet plays a great game of ping pong.

First meeting her, you would

think she was having a bad day

and was a little rough

Looks can be deceiving

I took a chance and asked

her to play ping pong

She has been caring and encouraging

She seems to enjoy seeing me

and we play every Saturday

Imagine what would have happened

if I believed first impressions

and never asked her to play 

Yes, looks can be deceiving
