The Issue

I have no legs, But I still have feeling, I cannot see, But I think all the time, Although I am deaf, I still want to communicate, Why do people see me as useless, Thoughtless, talkless, When I am as capable as any, For thoughts about our world.

Ability

I am happy when… I am happy with small things, I am happy when… People understand when I am trying to say, when I talk with other people on the same level, I am happy because I am proud of myself, I am happy when I study, by studying I can learn new information, I get to understand the news from all over the world, I can calculate how much to pay when I am eating, I can say what I think is right or wrong, I am happy because I get to do so many things by myself, I am happy because I have favorite things to do, I am happy when I am cheering for any players, Because their passion is so great, I feel as if I am one of them, And I also get very passionate, I am happy because I have a dream It may seem small but planning and living faithfully every day, Makes me feel so happy.

Convention

Optimism is our motto in life, Listen my friend, my friends, Let your motto be love & faith Life is a gift from our merciful Lord to all creatures in heaven as on earth, If you have any friends with disability, Stay close to them to help them feel secure, Urge them to be optimistic & to love life Tell them that despair is cowardice, And that perseverance & determination are signs of courage, Hope is our in our life, A gentle smile brings us together, There is no despair in life & no life is despair.

Rights

Two worlds… Torn between the ears of sounds & silent, Uncertain, unable to join… Tear flow… Unknowingly both push away, Rejected made to feel, Unbelonging… Tear flow… Except certain hands, Pulls pushes encourages, Is relentless… Tear flow a smile growing, Still stuck between, But loved.

There is Light

If I Cannot Have the Sun, I Still Have the Moon, If I Cannot Have the Moon, I Still Have the Stars, If I Cannot Have the Stars, I Still Have My Evening Lamp To Give Me Light, If I Cannot Have All these, I Could Go To Sleep & Dream that there is a Light. Airostic------Poem
