poetry help??

[Gilmore01]

I need to write a poem about disabled people but i don't really know what to write. i just have a small idea, like we have everything but we still want more and they have much less than us but they are always happy and smiling. And that we should be thankful for all that we have because they are thankful even though they have special needs. Can anyone write a poem with these ideas so then i can make up my own by taking some points?

Try something like this...imagine you are a small child, and you have been introduced to a boy the same age (let's make them both 5 years old) that is in a wheelchair...you really don't understand it, and you want to play...so you tell the boy of all the adventures you have playing in the woods and all the imaginative neighborhood stories you know, and when he tells you he can't do all those things, you want to free him from the wheelchair...rip the spokes off the wheelchair and teach him how to fly...

As a disabled person ( and poet) I can give you some head's ups... 1. Most of us suffer in silence, we wish things were different, and we hate being this way.2. Most of us say " Why me? to God and wonder where the justice is in the world. We hide our tears of pain, both emotional and physical. 3.We want to give up, because we know there is nothing better for us..... just for a few thoughts.
