In chat tonight, I was asked to post this poem. Our youngest, Claire (6 y/o autie), was asked to pick a poem and memorize it for her class poetry celebration. I think it's a pretty insightful choice for a child who struggles immensely with communication.

ALONE

In the middle of this riot
I'd like to find a place that's quiet
A little space that's shaped like me
A little place where I can be

Alone

Very insightful of Claire, indeed. I'm all teary, but in a good way.
Thank you so much for sharing. I'm printing it out too, definitely a keeper.
