A poem for my special needs nephew.

His life is very different than mine.
His life will be wet from drooling all the time.
The rest of his life. ok
his life will never be fully dry.
But no matter the challenge, he will compromise.
Take on everything with an I can smile.
He won't understand when you raise a hand
And finger point at laugh with your band.
Band of friends that'll he'll never fully understand.
His friends exist in a fantasy land.
But he still smiles and waves.
Even not wanted he'll try and play the game.
Such a soft soul in a world of lions.
But no matter the knock down he keeps on trying.
I asked for a sign.
I asked for someone to teach me to grow.
At that time I wouldn't have known.
Blessed with the best.
A man to hold my heart.
My nephew was all I needed a special someone right from the start.

I've got a little 7 years old cousin brother just like your nephew....he's a form of angel to me...Yeah he isn't normal...he's beyond that and splendid thoughts he's got towards people...never forgets if anyone talks to him with a bit of love!!
It's really inspiring...thanks for writing this....tis a great tribute to your nephew!☺

Thank you so much! They really are angels! They teach you so much about life.. compassion and to not let what others think stop you from achieving greatness.
