MY WORLD

[openyoureyes]

Just received a poem from a friend and it reminded me of a poem I did some time ago

when we found our son had ASD just thought I would share this with you - what do you think?

 

A Poem written by a Mother through the eyes of

her 4 year old son who suffers with

Autistic Spectrum Disorder

 

MY WORLD

 

My World is Great, Energetic and Exciting

Sometimes I Fear its Confusing and Frightening

My World is Organised, Routine is a must

Sometimes people don?t understand me, I need people I can trust

 

My World is like a Beautiful Summers Day

But when the Sun goes in it becomes Cloudy and Grey

I don?t understand Change and Your World moves so fast

Give me a little time so I can adjust

 

My World is full of friends and people I see

But I love being on my own contented and ME

I can speak very clearly and can hear just as well

I just need time to work out the things that you tell

 

My World is different without communication

So when speaking to me don?t expect a conversation

I don?t understand what you are trying to say

I may just ignore you and go out and play

 

My World is best when I know what I?m doing

I need guide lines to know exactly where I?m going

Its? hard to conform when you don?t understand

It?s My World, I love it, but need your helping hand.

Now that has got to be one of the best poems I have read about ASD in a long long while.

thanks for all your nice comments, nice to know I am doing something right!!!!!

 

Went for my 6yr review today, thought I was going to be up for a battle but was quite surprised the school is on our side. As you are probably aware the government are rolling our there "inclusion for schools" prgramme from September 2007 therefore our son will move from the ASD unit he is at in Macclesfield to the ASD unit at the choosen school in Poynton, they don';t know which one yet. So lets just see how that goes!!!!! as long as the staff are on board!!!!!!!!!

fingers crossed

 

got to go as my hubby has dinner ready - yum yum
