Is This The Way Autistic People Think Poem by James McLain

In realms unseen, where thoughts entwine,
Resides a world, unique and kind.
A spectrum vast, where colors gleam,
Autism's tapestry, a vibrant theme.

In minds untamed, a symphony plays,
A different rhythm, a wondrous maze.
Perception's prism, kaleidoscope bright,
Autistic souls embrace the light.

With heightened senses, they explore,
A sensory symphony they adore.
Whispers loud, textures sing,
Each sensation, a vibrant thing.

They see the world through intricate eyes,
Where patterns dance, and beauty lies.
Connections formed in intricate ways,
The puzzle pieces their minds embrace.

For logic reigns in every thought,
Precision sought, battles fought.
Details noticed, in every glance,
A thirst for knowledge, a lifelong dance.

In solitude, they find solace sweet,
In solitude, their minds retreat.
A sanctuary, where thoughts can flow,
Unraveling mysteries, they proudly know.

With passions fierce, they find their call,
An endless journey, they stand tall.
From art to science, their minds create,
Innovation blooms, no boundaries to abate.

Communication's dance may pose a test,
Words elude, but hearts express.
Through gestures, signs, and gentle touch,
Their language formed, their souls find clutch.

Understanding them, an open door,
To bridges built, forevermore.
A world of empathy, love, and grace,
Where acceptance shines, no judgment's trace.

Autism's gift, a different view,
A celebration, both old and new.
For in their minds, the seeds are sown,
Of endless possibilities yet unknown.

So let us cherish their boundless minds,
Embrace the beauty that in them resides.
For in diversity, our strength is found,
A tapestry of minds, forever bound.
