Poem

When you see a person in wheel chair?
Have you ever thought about their plight?
Thought about their daily struggles…about how they sleep at night?

Wondered though they may be paralyzed…if they feel any pain?
Wondered how they get around in snow or sleet or rain

Have you ever thought of all the pathways in this world that slant?
When you think of all they places you can go…
Have you thought about where they can’t?

When you see a person without sight…
have you ever thought about their plight?
Thought about how they navigate the world…or live in constant night.

Wondered how they choose their toothpaste or the clothes they wear?
Wondered if they mix up day and night and how difficult are stairs?

When you see a sunrise, sunset, or the colors of a flowering plant
When you see the beauty all around you…have you ever thought…they can’t

When you see a person who is deaf
Have you ever thought about their plight?
What it’s like not to hear the melodies of the day…or the harmonies of the night?

Wondered if they feel more danger, more anxiety more fear
living in a world of sounds…but sounds they cannot hear..

When you hear someone call your name, or sing or scream or chant
as you listen to the music of life, have you ever thought…they can’t.

Have you ever thought of all their families 
helping those who cannot walk or see or hear
and of all the unseen ways they show their love…
every day…
of every year.

What if those of us who are lucky…
who can walk and hear and chant
take a moment every day to think of those who can’t… 

To help in any way we can…
for love has many ways it can be shone
knowing the weight of any burdens is less
when we don’t carry it alone.
