Custom made perfect kids
Were never in God’s plan
Just in case you thought
Why me?
Why my kid?
It was us being unrealistic
Forgot the rules of the world
Forgot how every butterfly is different
Forgot how no two things are same in nature
And still there is acceptance for all
While all kids are Gods paintings,
Kids with special needs are his modern art
While all kids are Gods poems
Kids with special needs are his free verses
While all kids are Gods songs
Kids with special needs are born when he raps
Oh yes God raps and tap dances too
But you have to have an open mind for that
So next time you think why me
And go in denial for long
You blame the god for this and that
And think he has been wrong
First thank him for a child born
For that is a gift in itself
Thank him for the uniqueness
For that is God’s way of showing
He still has faith in us
More time you will take in accepting
Precious time you will waste
And while God may forgive you
For Your ignorance and delay
Time my dear will not
If there is any doubt
About you kids behavior
That you are having today
Get some help
As soon as you can
Meet a special educator
And chart out an action plan
It is Ok to feel sad sometimes
But don’t get stuck up for too long
And look at you kids when in doubt
It has not being easy for them
So pull up yourselves and be ready
You have to make your kid independent and strong
Your kid accepts you for what you are
They love you in spite your shortcomings or faults
Show them the way
You will be surprised
How much in this process you will also learn
Embrace your child with all your heart
Support them, be part of their life
Understand what they say and when they don’t
And see the wonders of love.
