Who’s missing from your table?

Who’s not sitting or standing on your floor?

Look around and ask yourself 

Who have we never invited in

To even set foot in our door?

Who’s missing from your plans and dreams?

Who’s never expected to play a part?

Look around and ask yourself 

Who else could be here, changing our culture from within,

Changing our heart?

Who’s missing from your programmes?

Who’s not being given any consideration?

Look around and ask yourself 

Who else would like to do as we do?

They are not some kind of aberration.

Who’s missing? 

I am, though I am not missed.

Who’s missing out?

We all are.
