Best Autism Poems

I rise at the center of...
Is it a room? This is a face.
There is motion, too fast, too clamorous.
Cryptic and opaque. Shapes shift
into my field of view.
Recognize! The message spoken
ends in an upward curve.
Interpret! It means a question

I have autism, mild MR, and OCD. I had those mental disabilities since I was three years
old. Even though I'm autistic, I'm still functioning just like everybody else. Having
autism doesn't mean one individual is from another planet besides Earth; having autism
means accepting for who he...

O, I love my dear boy
So dearly and so blindly
I will give him my blood
And life if God permits so

He's so weak and sick
So pallid and so tender
But I know he's an umbrella of snow
In the wide-brimmed form

A rhyme, a loft 
Almost in the spelling...

Autism 

Let me tell you about my life, are you listening?
I’m here but nobody is listening, they just look and laugh.
They tell me to sit up and act my age, but what about my pent up rage.
I get up for school, what to wear, so...

The people blessed with Autism
Are unique in their own way, 
For they live in their own world
Each and every single day.

The cause remains a mystery
No two people are the same,
For they live in their own world
There’s no one that you can blame.

They are special and...

Autistic blank gaze 
Graces the spaces of mind
Rainbow's grace bestows
Dark forest gives way to trees
A smile colors blank spaces

Amazing God has created me, I am
Unique and Wonderfully made.
Trying to make sense of this crazy world around me.
Intelligent
Strong willed and often times
Mysterious

Autism is a spectrum everyone don't fit under the same umbrella and in this
World everyone is not same and don't learn the same...

For my niece with autism. 


Her intrigue melts in silence
as she gazes up at me
a big surprise
behind those eyes
that only she can see.


She leads me off to nowhere
as she takes me by the hand
a quiet side, where she abides
but doesn't understand


Oh let me in to...

alarm goes off*
I sit straight up startled and scared
Just my alarm, I hit the button
Get up and go to the bathroom
I brush my teeth with my toothbrush
Scratchy, painful bristles
Toothpaste that makes me sick
With the strong mint flavor
Back to my room going thru clothes
Too scratchy, too...

This baby is being born with hardly a belly button the angel declared.
Yes, this is a special one sent to a family who is kind and understanding
It is not every parent who can raise a child like this one thus the button lack.

I'm sorry I'm autistic, 
That I don't fit your expectations,
I'm different, I know,
But that doesn't mean I don't belong.

I may rock,
I may cry,
But I try and try, 
To be normal in a world full of expectations.

But I'm different, 
I know,
So I'll make my own normal.

I'm...

David’s Song

Little one, I have watched you growing;
Seen the joy of life stolen from your very soul;
Seen the wonder of your world disappear into a haze
Just beyond the reach of your hand,

Little one, still your feet would fly
To the sun – running to catch the...

I don’t know how to swim,
but I can swim well
Ask me to teach you how to solve
a problem, and I am stumped
but tell me to move a mountain
and I will push it out of your way
I can do so much more
than I can explain
I feel...
