The Extraordinary Powers of Autistic Children
In a world alive with colors unseen,
There dwells a soul, a heart so willing.
An autistic child with a mind so bright,
A universe within, a wonderful light.
With eyes that shimmer like heavens afar,
They navigate a world, a unique avatar.
In the maze of thoughts, where wonders unfold,
Their superpowers hid in their mold.
A symphony of senses, an extraordinary view,
They feel the whispers that others misconstrue.
In patterns and details, they find their joy,
A kaleidoscope of visions, a magnificent picture.
Their mind, a canvas where dreams take flight,
A realm of possibilities, gleaming with might.
They possess superpowers beyond the standard,
In the intricate fabric where their thoughts are warm.
They're warriors of compassion, champions of grace,
Understanding emotions in every space.
With hearts that resonate, a profound compassion,
Their superpower and heart are unbound.
In the tapestry of silence, they hear a song,
A melody is fantastic, where it truly belongs.
Their world, a sanctuary, a haven of calm,
Their superpower lies in this peaceful release.
In moments of chaos, they find a retreat,
A sanctuary within, where harmony completes.
Their strength lies not in the conventional fight,
But in the depths of their soul's ballet.
So, let us admire their magical ways,
Their superpowers shape their wondrous days.
For in their world, brilliance unfurls,
An autistic child with superpowers conquers the world.
