Some might say she is hopeless...
For how could she ever learn...
When she cannot hear...
And her vision is poor...
What hope could their possibly be?
But all is not lost...
She still has a key...
To learn about her world!
See her sweet little hand?
For how could she ever learn...
When she cannot hear...
And her vision is poor...
What hope could their possibly be?
But all is not lost...
She still has a key...
To learn about her world!
See her sweet little hand?
Far more than just a handy tool...
It is her key to knowledge...
The way she learns about her world!
Though she cannot hear the birds singing in the trees...
Or hear when someone calls her name...
Or hear her friends if they whisper secrets in her ears...
She can feel a kitten's soft fur...
A mama's soft cheek...
A daddy's rough chin whiskers...
She can feel the grass as it tickles her little feet...
She can feel warm bath water and a snugly towel...
Her sense of touch is her key to the world!
But she needs another key to maximize her potential...
What is this key you ask?
A Mom and Dad who believe in her...
A Mom and Dad to make sure she gets the education, therapy and schooling she needs...
A Mom and Dad to let her know how very special she is...
And that she can achieve great things with love and perseverance!
After all, Helen Keller, who was not only deaf, but completely blind as well...
Learned to speak and read braille...
Graduated from collage...
Received honorary doctoral degrees from multiple universities including Harvard...
Gave lectures, wrote articles...
Was a political activist...
Traveled the world...
Received medals...
And was in the Women's Hall of Fame!
