Dyslexia

My son has dyslexia
He struggles with his words!
He has a great mathematical brain
But it's words that give him grief!
It's like there is some difference
In the way his brain works
It's like everything is upside down
Instead of down side up
It's all topsy turvy
It's all ass about face
Sometimes I wonder
How he gets from A to B
He works out math problems
They are all just fine
But ask him to write some stuff
And then see how it pains!
What another does in minutes
It used to take him hours!
The teachers had a weekend away
A time to understand their brains
They were asked to write in Chinese
Using their left hands 
This is how they got to feel
Just exactly what it's like
To be dyslexic: to be different
To be left behind in grades
Simply because their brain
Works differently than ours!
