Guest guest Posted November 29, 2004 Report Share Posted November 29, 2004 I found this poem online and it has helped me to get through some of the harder times....watch out it does tend to make me cry... Heaven's Very Special Child A meeting was held far from earth 'It's time again for another birth' said the angel to the Lord above 'This special child will need much love'. Her progress may seem very slow Accomplishments she may not show And she'll require extra care from the folk she meets way down there. She may not run, or laugh, or play her thoughts might seem quite far away In many ways she won't adapt And she will be known as handicapped. So let's be careful where she's sent We want her life to be content Please Lord find the people who Will be special for you. They will not realise right away The leading role they're asked to play But with this child sent from above Comes stronger faith and richer love. And soon they'll know the privilege given in caring for this gift from heaven Their precious charge, so meek, so mild Is 'Heaven's Very Special Child'. >From: jaaaj@... >Reply-To: MosaicDS >To: MosaicDS >Subject: Poem >Date: Sun, 28 Nov 2004 12:36:12 EST > > >Im sure that we have had this posted at one time or another but i thought >that with so many new members and so many new parents I thought we should >post it >again >Hope everyone had a happy and healthy Thanksgiving! >,Ariel,is & Jaedyn >The Creed for Children with Down Syndrome >My face may be different >But my feelings the same >I laugh and I cry >And I take pride in my gains >I was sent here among you >To teach you to love >As God in the heavens >Looks down from above >To Him I'm no different >His love knows no bounds >It's those here among you >In cities and towns >That judge me by standards >That man has imparted >But this family I've chosen >Will help me get started >For I'm one of the children >So special and few >That came here to learn >The same lessons as you >That love is acceptance >It must come from the heart >We all have the same purpose >Though not the same start >The Lord gave me life >To live and embrace >And I'll do it as you do >But at my own pace > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
