DISABLED WOMAN'S VOICE - POEM
I am a proud disabled woman.
My body and mind may challenge me.
I have learned my own special way
To meet my needs, to deal with life.
I have dreams, and I have goals.
And you will see, I will achieve.
Give me respect, as I deserve.
I will persevere for my rights.
Disabled friends, they understand.
We share fears, joys, and support.
I am female with feelings as
you.
Include me, enable me, celebrate me.
I am a disabled woman, very much
alive.
Hear me, care about me, treasure me!
