Accept Him

“You see me
as lazy, but what you don't see”
“I'm
Mentally Challenged, it's all that I can be”
“I may not
follow, exactly what you do”
“Yet there
are things about me, that you never knew”
“I have a
big heart, that is pure and true”
“I keep
company, in the way that I do”
“I lend an
ear, and I listen with my soul”
“The
friends that I visit, they always seem to know”
He's an
Angel, disguised so that you
Can open up
your eyes, to see what is true
The residents
see it in him, every day he's there
Why can't you
see it, don't be so unfair
He does what
he does, in the only way he can
It's not hard
to understand, he's a simple man
Accept him,
he is not you nor me
Acknowledge
him, for his way holds the key
“I know
exactly how you feel towards me”
“That is
why I wish, you would just let me be”
“I love
this job, these residents love me too”
“You need
understanding, because you haven't a clue”
Why are you
always at odds, and to him you say
“Do what
we're doing, because it's the only way”
He's not
lazy, but there are things you need to know
Why do you
feel this way, no need of stones to throw
I've seen
him embraced by many people thanking him for his
companionship.
I've seen him put smile on people's faces where
there was
none before. I've seen him make people laugh. What's
really
funny is, we at the Harbor Tower know and love this man.
One thing
you may not have known is, ever since I moved into
the Harbor
Tower, he's been a friend of mine.
