Lord Addo-Yobo Poet Rhyme

The Blind,The Deaf,The Dumb

We make mockery their fates
Knowing that mishaps have no dates
Priding ourselves in our states
We fail to see our dirty slates

But I see their smile and ask why
Understanding their language,I try
In true innocence ,they do fly
As on their privacy,I do pry

But I would rather turn a deaf ear
Than to hear to words to fear
I marvel at their silent cheer
As I seek to draw near

I would rather go dumb
Than say words to make you numb
I watch my talk and chew gum
As I seek  to hurt none
