pushing the wheel chair harder
the old man heaved
his poor body shook
hid poorer heart spoke
silent pleadings it sent
get me a repreive
give me an assurance
this young life
shall find his feet
he will be taken care of
he will laugh and be laughed along with
this he said
his voice shook
his daughter stood dumb
will she raise to the challenge? ? ? ?
will she brave the odds? ? ? ?
