Let's Be Each Other

entry picture

Do you fancy a swap, a barter or deal.
Maybe some arrangement we can seal.
Stole my space, do you want to be me?
Do you think I'm lucky as I park for free?

Do you crave a blue badge in your name?
Do you want to swap well being for pain?
Maybe we should even go the whole way.
Let's be each other, and try that for a day.

Try my wheelchair for size, be my guest.
I can be you, with perfect health blessed.
You'll soon realise just how lucky you are.
And be glad that bay was meant for my car.

I applaud you here Mike. As my wife has a badge we qualify for negative thoughts and envy from some , mostly kept secret of course. When a disabled space can't be found she's often hemmed in both sides. Perhaps if there was more space for each car for non disabled it might ease the situation but I doubt it.
A valid poem nicely presented. Ray
