I want to speak to you about a boy
Who smiles and laughs
At the strangest of sights

Who finds beauty
In the simplest of things

I want to speak to you about a boy
Who touches my heart
With a crooked smile

Who brings tears to my eyes
With each new word he learns

I want to speak to you about a boy
My son, a face in a crowd of many
A child with Autism.

Thanks...and he is cutie and sweet too!
With all the publicity Autism has recieved lately, a lot showing the struggle, I just felt compelled to share what I see beyond that.
