Raymond Annacat
Familiar stares and furtive glances
Others prefer to just look away
Mothers wonder what the chance was
Of being in my shoes for just one day
He’s a brother unlike any other
His face reveals the reason why
Take some time you will discover
The beauty hidden deep inside
Imagine never saying an unkind word
Someone who smiles at every face he sees
A deeper trust in man has not occurred
An ability to love with no greater degree
He was different from the day he arrived
I’ve learned more from him about this paradise
My parents loved him till the day they died
I took him with me and have never thought twice
Imagine never having a care in this life
Or seeing the dark side of your condition
Hurtful comments that could cut like a knife
Never understood by the victim
So if you happen to walk on by
Look hard and long into his face
And smile back at him and don’t question why
A human moment not to waste
And think of what it means in the everyday
What acting normal seems to be to you
How we treat anyone in a certain way
May not be the right thing to do
Imagine never having an impure thought
Not caring what others think or of being shunned
Imagine learning things that cannot be taught
Life lessons learned from my brother Raymond
