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.
