                 I WONDER

                 By: Kari A. Harrington



    I wonder about walking

     

     

     

    I wonder about walking.

    What it would feel like

    To walk alone

    With nobody walking behind me,

    Without anyone hugging me

    Around my middle?

    To me it would feel so strange,

    I’ve never walked without any help!

     

    I wonder about talking.

    What would it sound like

    If I said every word right

    And oh so clear,

    To have everyone understand

    Everything I said?

    To me it would sound so strange,

    I’ve never talked without difficulty!

     

    I wonder about having two good hands.

    What would it feel like

    If I dressed myself

    And my parents had only themselves

    To take care of,

    To make oh so much easier

    The things I do now?

    To me it would feel so strange,

    I’ve always had just one good hand
