BEHOLD WHAT I SEE

The things some never think about,
are what's important to me.

The things that so many never see,
stand out in my memory.

The retarded child with happiness,
and sweet and innocent love.

The courage of the wheel chair bound,
and how they have overcome.

The blind who seem to see with their soul,
so much more than we.

All of these things I view with love,
for all humanity.

I just made my first 100% deaf friend. She's teaching me to sign and its so fun. I really thought it would be hard, but its actually pretty easy! Chris and I are having fun signing back and forth to each other. We have our own secret language now.

That's about it.

Not sure I even know that anymore.

I loved the last verse of this poem, "the blind who see so much more than we ..." .. not just because of the meaning behind it, but also the way you word it :)

Instead of saying "retarded", I'd probably say, "the lost child" or perhaps, "the simple one" .. let your users ponder on the meaning of various verses, don't have to spell out everything.

BUt i see that your verses rhyme, which is fantastic.

Hi Nabeel,
Thanks for the advise.
I don't care for "the lost child" I don't think it fits to many are much wiser then people give them credit for. But I do like " the simple child", I think that would fit much better with the rest of the poem.
Good idea Nabeel, I wish I had thought of it.
