Cry of a Down’s syndrome Child
I may not look like the rest
but I work so hard to look my best
Always I am late to catch up
Therefore people tend to get fed up
All I have caused is pain
When my mom has worked in vain
Father spent all his dimes
But what I did was waste his time
I so want to be useful
All I have ever been is painful
Did you read Kim Edwards’s Memory Keeper’s Daughter? Its about a Down Syndrome child and i wrote this poem while preparing a review for this novel. (In 2013)
