Special Olympian, Special People
They say they are different, but they are not
human just like us, just a little different
in life we treat them bad, they are really great
people can learn a lot from them
they treat no one different, we're all the same
you and I are all alike there should be no indifference
between body and mind no disabilities can keep them down
fighters they are, gentle they are by heart
most are friendly and very polite, easy to talk to
they have stories they love to tell
listen well because they can tell if your listening well
They are special in all ways, more in life then you and I
Give it all and don't be sad, the best time is having fun with everyone
I look forward to drive them to every Olympic event
from track to bocce ball to basketball and everything in between
Always giving it all, sweat, tears and smiles
some sad times, some great but they always rebound
to cheer and to clap on everyone before and after them
Special with Pride and dedicated with love
will never let you down
they never give up and never should we
To me, they are Special Friends one in all
