A sensitively depicted poetic piece on the life of an autistic child, and the difference he can make to the world, for the Autism Special Edition I of ‘Learning and Creativity’.
Autism Awareness Special Edition I
By Himali Narang
Sing like flying doves
I want to catch the birds
Come with me, teacher
Hold my little finger
Tell me more about this strange world
See it along with me
Holding my little finger
You will see it differently
Your clouds bear significance
Shapes comely of rabbits, mine
I dream of silver ribbons
Flowing rivers glisten
Magic of light
Enticing magnetising colours
I want to give my mother
The flowers in my heart
Sing like flying doves
I want to catch the birds
But I let them sing
Tinkling bells of desires many
Soft cheesy moon
The crow on my terrace craves
How I wish
Plucking it , I could give it away
Tiny frogs in match boxes I save
As raindrops in an inverted umbrella wave
So much fun
Splashing a rave
When my knee bleeds
I am not so hurt
It doesn’t matter so much
Your looking away
Is something that makes me furious
You keep saying again and again
Look in my eyes
Look at me
And I simply cannot
What difference will that make?

The Significant League is a Facebook literary group which was started by a person who has a child with autism and hence has a special interest in it which explains why every April Autism Awareness month the group tries to do something connected with autism. This time, as for last year, it has been to trying to get its members to write poems on autism. Some very fine poems have come up as result.
