Think of It this Way

Some people look at my chair with awe.
Some people look at it with pity.
The former I think inspiring.
The latter I think quite shi***.

My posture is quite crooked.
My spine never will be straight.
Some think it a cosmic tragedy,
I was resigned to such a fate

Everything I do is much harder,
But when achieved, more satisfying too.
Just to sit looks so relaxing;
Most people have no clue.

For me, I see the blessings.
For me, it’s not a curse.
For I hold on to the positives;
It could be so much worse.

I still have my sense of humor.
I still have my God above,
Who helps with daily struggles,
And who showers me with love.

Some people might think it’s pitiful.
Some people might think it’s so unfair.
But ask me what I think.
Don’t just stop and stare.

My chair can be seen with positives,
No matter what people think of it.
If nothing else, just think of this,
I always have a place to sit!
