Hard to Believe -1500th Post #blogging #poetry #autism

ocean’s spring

Child’s Play

In words we say it

in pictures we take it

and in our blogs

we mold and make it

Fifteen hundred blogs are gone

fifteen hundred more beyond

what they’ll say

or what they spawn

 A statement made

 (to rest) a character laid

the things we do

with poem and spade

So gather more

we’ll gather less

pen fifteen hundred?

please be my guest

This drop in the bucket blog  of over 1500 poems.  (many more still archived other for publishing sent on)

In Andrew’s World

What is there in the rain

a drop of H2O

maybe a lesson in science

a place for your mind to go

It comes from the clouds you see

*

a mystery within a mist

returning to  earth’s soft floor

all just part of a cycle

pieces of info to store

***

In Andrew’s world the rain has life

there’s color, action and more

it’s big its small its filled with light 

swims in rivers and streams

things that float things that fly

*

Why just some of the  things  he sees

enjoying this gift from the sky

Andrew’s mind lives  in  the drop

looking from below and from up high

****

so much he sees  because he believes

he goes far beyond where our mind stops

 coming together with those from afar

there is much in this world of  his drops

*

I listen for the plops

and strain for  Andrew’s view

it opens my mind to something unseen

 reserved for the few

what a fabulous place to believe

***

~Children like Andrew who are autistic often see beyond the restricted point where many see.

Their minds tend to blossom and adventure beyond the outer reaches of the unknown.
