I SAW A CHILD
I SAW A CHILD WHO COULDN'T WALK
SIT ON A HORSE, LAUGH AND TALK.
THEN RIDE IT THROUGH A FIELD OF DAISIES
AND YET HE COULD NOT WALK UNAIDED.
I SAW A CHILD, NO LEGS BELOW,
SIT ON A HORSE, AND MAKE IT GO
THROUGH THE WOODS OF GREEN
AND PLACES HE HAD NEVER BEEN
TO SIT AND STARE
EXCEPT FROM A CHAIR.
I SAW A CHILD WHO COULD ONLY CRAWL,
MOUNT A HORSE AND SIT UP TALL.
PUT IT THROUGH DEGREES OF PACES
AND LAUGH AT THE WONDER IN OUR FACES.
I SAW A CHILD BORN INTO STRIFE,
TAKE UP AND HOLD THE REINS OF LIFE
AND THAT SAME CHILD WAS HEARD TO SAY,
THANK GOD FOR SHOWING ME THE WAY.

BEATITUDES FOR FRIENDS OF THE HANDICAPPED
BLESSED ARE YOU WHO TAKE THE TIME TO LISTEN TO DIFFICULT
SPEECH, FOR YOU HELP ME TO KNOW THAT IF I PERSEVERE,
I CAN BE UNDERSTOOD.
BLESSED ARE YOU WHO NEVER BID ME TO "HURRY UP" OR TAKE
MY TASKS AND DO THEM FOR ME, FOR OFTEN
I NEED TIME RATHER THAN HELP.
BLESSED ARE YOU WHO STAND BESIDE ME
AS I ENTER NEW AND UNTRIED VENTURES,
FOR MY FAILURES WILL BE OUTWEIGHED
BY THE TIMES I SURPRISE MYSELF AND YOU.
BLESSED ARE YOU WHO UNDERSTAND THAT IT IS DIFFICULT FOR ME
TO PUT MY THOUGHTS INTO WORDS.
BLESSED ARE YO WHO WITH A SMILE ENCOURAGE ME
TO TRY ONCE MORE.
BLESSED ARE YOU WHO NEVER REMIND ME THAT TODAY
I ASKED THE SAME QUESTION TWICE.
BLESSED ARE YOU WHO RESPECT ME AND LOVE ME
AS I AM, JUST AS I AM.
