DISABILITY

DISABILITY

With a handicap, I am viewed unfortunate
But I uphold I am fortunate
For God Almighty who knows all
Has a perfect plan for us all

By His will I shall strive
And never relent to thrive
For I belief disability
Does not stipulate inability

I consider myself a being
As every human being
My obvious predicament
Does not curb my excitement

Life is what we make of it
I absolutely intend to make the best of it
So I desire no pity
From people in any city

Like folks I just need encouragement
Vital through empowerment
Seeking equal opportunities
As human rights constituencies

Harden not to listen to our voices
Our plea is to give us choices
Do not reject nor exploit us in the community
We are an integral part of society
