DOWN

DOWN SYNDROME GIRL DIGITAL VERSION CHRYSSA VELISSARIOU 2014


The kid with the extra chromosome
is one more child
with an additional gift
nobody will offer you
as much love as this kid returns


The kid with the extra chromosome
is the personification of innocence
in a world infinitely sly
is a different poem
on human nature

The kid with the extra chromosome
could be my daughter
often plays with me, fights unevenly
is underestimated, but continues to return
back to you unconditional love



21 March 2014 marks the 9th anniversary of World Down Syndrome Day and each year the voice of people with Down syndrome, and those who live and work with them, grows louder. But there is still so much more we can do.
