S-peak not the truth, pleasant or not, I-n my mouth, silence resounds; G-ive me your smile and not a frown, N-od your head and I’ll understand. L-ift up my spirit as I do the rest, A-ccept me for what I am and my weaknesses, N-eeding your special love, care and sweetness, G-od rewards you a thousand folds if you can give. U-pbeat so much of your capabilities, A-ll of us have something to share; G-uide me to make the stars not out of my reach, E-nigma of my strength is you, my God’s gift. Sign language helps you to understand me, for I am a child who is a hearing impaired. Aug. 11,2012 Note: I composed this poem lovingly dedicated to exceptional kids especially the HI. May God bless you all.

Leonora not only do I love this, but I did sign language to level 3 for my job, it was the most rewarding thing I ever did, we did sign language poetry contests, great fun, thanks for all of your kind comments..David

there is so much to understand and respect someone's differences and adversity. there is so much to shine a light to help the environmentally challenged.
