I Have
the Courage
I cannot speak,
but you understand
me.
I cannot walk, so you push
me.
I cannot sing, but I love
music.
I cannot crawl, so you carry
me.
I cannot tell jokes, but I
love to laugh.
I cannot wash myself, so you
bathe me.
I cannot play with Barbies,
but I can push a switch.
I cannot wave bye-bye,
so you do that for me.
I cannot dress myself,
so you make me pretty.
I cannot read, so you tell
me stories.
I cannot touch, but I can
feel.
I cannot go up the stairs,
so you put me
on the lift.
I cannot tell you how much
I love you,
so look into my eyes and you will see.
I cannot tell what the future
will hold,
but I have the courage
to go on.
For Reba, from your sister
