I Cherish My Wheelchair

by Lucio Muñoz

Yes, I am in a wheel-chair,
Yet, I strive to play fair,
Whether I am participating in an Olympic
Or in a picnic.

Yes, I am in a wheel-chair,
Yet, I too enjoy grasping for fresh air,
Whether I am climbing mountains,
Or playing around water fountains.

Yes, I am in a wheel-chair,
Yet, I love helping at the country fair,
Whether making cotton candy
Or organizing the evening party.

Hence, I cherish fairness,
Competition,
Fresh air,
Ability awareness,
Inclusion,
And, my wheel-chair.
