Wondering,
worrying
hoping...
where's the next breath?
The challenges abound
heartfelt, for many children
Coughing continually
contagious sounds
The odiferous reeking smell
your wheelchair, clothes, and hair
A lifetime living Hell....
The physically challenged are
most affected; poisoned by smoke
Breaking my heart
bringing me to tears
precious children always
