I second everything that Dusk arising so eloquently stated in his comment! great write,
may I recommend you read the forward or intro to a poetry collection book by the actor John Lithgow, you may find a section on a special dinner that inspired his book: specifically poignant to you,

So glad I found this, in the words of John Keats:
\"Beauty is truth, truth beauty,--that is all
Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.\"
and I know: that these words you have penned, define Beautiful in its raw and most courageous visage - to me! Thank you for letting me meet, your wonderful boy - through your mesmeric words, it is and will ever remain, my privilege to have met a soul who inspired such a gloriously heartfelt dedication!

This is the third piece of yours i have read (although it was the first posted by you) and I\'m \'more aware\' of you than had it been the first i read.
Look at what a loving mother you have become in stark contrast to what this piece portrays.
You are a wonderful example of the resilience of the human condition.
There are many secrets of life we may only guess at and perhaps play games with. In the realms of reincarnation such challenges as you have been presented and overcome are the path to advancement in the company of the super beings or angels.

Having read your piece dear autism i decided to look at your other pieces and i\'m so glad i did.
This is another gem. Selfless unconditional love shines from its emotion and structure.
I know how connecting with others appears a challenge for those with autism but this chap seems the sort of guy anyone would be pleased to call a pal. I know I would.

A wonderful insightful piece as can only be written from a parents heart.
I began reading your piece in full agreement for my daughter was found to be autistic too. However that was the lesser of her differences for she was also blessed with what the language of he day called severely mentally handicapped.
So yes i fully understood the first part of your piece. Continuing onto part two had me in tears for your devotion and love.
Having a special child gives us special insights. Would you agree with \'priveleges\' insofar as we have found ourselves exploring and evaluating thoughts we would not have recognised beforehand.
And of course, we have a beautiful human soul who loves us unconditionally as we them.
Your piece goes into my favourites. Thank you so very much for sharing such a personal glory.

Good rhythm. This poem tugs on my heartstrings. Watch out for "auto correct," since there are spelling gremlins within its clutches. I know because it has a mind of its own and has caught me several times.
