Please Don't Judge My Child

Please don't judge my child,
I can see it in your eyes. 
If you only knew his story,
You just might sympathize.

Please don't judge my child,
He hasn't yet found his voice.
When you hear those screams,
Sometimes they are his only choice.

Please don't judge my child,
He's as sweet as sweet can be.
He is my gift from God,
I urge you to try and see.

Please don't judge my child,
If you only knew-
How hard he had to work,
For what came naturally to you.

Please don't judge my child,
Because if you take the chance-
You just might gain a friend.
If you take a second glance.
