Do you ever see kids with disabilities

Looking so happy and content

Seemingly living life to the fullest

As we sit and watch from a far enough distance

We feel sad for them

In the end, it should be the other way around

A special education teacher helps the light shine through their faces

The children are the warming sunlight of spring in the classroom

They are different from other people

In the way that they see the world around them

Kids with disabilities don’t feel sorry for themselves

They live life the way it’s meant to be lived

As a special education teacher, life is changed for the better

The smiles and the laughter that they bring

Will always be the warming sunlight of spring
