People With Abilities



We were born complete, joyous and plaful
But as we grew up, this joy was cut short by polliomalisis

Staying amongst people was a problem,
As the difference of body was clear
Children and adults make fun of us
As we struggle in navigation

I were called crippled, disabled, and physically challenged.
This is not a life we chose,
But a narrow path created by nature for us.

This is uur world,
This is our life and our destiny
We have to move on,
We have to fight to be a survivor

Believing in our self, and developing our abilities.
Every battle won has a prize
Today we have won,
And now we are called people with abilities

There are absolutely beautiful abilities in disabilities.
