~*~ Heaven's Special Child ~*~

 

A meeting was held quite far from Earth

"It's time again for another birth"

Said the Angels 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 folks she meets down there

She may not run or laugh or play

Her thoughts may seem quite far away

In many ways she won't adapt

And she'll be known as "handicapped"

So let's be careful where she's sent

We want her life to be content

Please Lord find the parents who

Will do a special job 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 child so meek and mild

Is Heaven's very Special Child

 

With this special poem, I have dedicated this page to my precious daughter, Amanda, who is "mentally handicapped" after an accident in 1990.
