It Could Be You!

People who are challenged
No different than you or I
They too, have thoughts and dreams
They too, can laugh and cry.

In many ways they are a mirror
That shows our own reflection
Of how we feel, when we face
Ridicule or rejection.

But, for the luck of the draw
"They", could be you or me
So when you meet one of "them"
Know, there's more than you can see.

Look past the part that's different
And into your own heart
Then you may understand
You're not, that far apart.

Yo Abe,

This is well said.

People have so much trouble with "different" in a lot of aspects of life here on earth.

Everyone is "different", we should all get used to it.

Your poetry for the most part moves me as I hope that it will move others.
