The night’s been long or so it seemed,
Dawn is slowly breaking, I can see the beam
Life’s taut and the going’s rough,
Oh they alone know how tough!
Watching on the lawns as friends play,
Jubilant and elated the whole day.
Wishing they too could jump someday
At that thought they laugh away!
Life’s tough but they don’t mourn,
Oh what brave souls they all own!
Each day’s a challenge for them to settle
And they do like warriors in battle.
The day seemed short or so it was
The laughs, the smiles wilt like they must
Oh the familiar end as day fades to dusk
The familiar question ‘Why am I different?’ they do ask!
(dedicated to all the differently-abled people with a salute)
