Special Children
When a child has been as mean
as you think they could possibly be
and they turn ariound and smile at you
it's loving you can truely see
Working with special children
has shined a light on me
I've nevr smiled so much
or been so frustrated
but when I see them smile
frustration doesn't last as long
They are slow at learning
and sometimes it gets to a point
when you think they'll never learn
but then when they surprise you
it makes you feel all warm
To think you've made a difference
even if it was just one child
it helps me to know why I'm here
and why I'm still trying
