“He’s Our Joy”

He talks funny

But his disposition is sunny

Even though his tongue is too long

He’s not a loss

Just because his eyes are crossed

He’s never going to earn a degree

To his parents he’ll always cleave

He may have Downs

But he’s a joy to have around

The public might shame him

But they don’t see what makes us love him

He’s our precious joy

Our very own Mongoloid.

A mother almost always loves her child, no matter if that child is not perfect in the eyes of society. A mother's love can be the most powerful emotion on earth, a mother will give her life for her child, if the mother loves her child. Not all do. Excellent poem, full of love and acceptance.
