Exceptional Child
Child
At the edge
Of awareness –
Life is hard.
Even simple things
Are difficult.
But
What is comparison
In your being?
What is utility
In a being?
What is indignity
In being?
And compassion?
What have you to account for?
What to give?
What to accomplish,
When your being
In itself
Teaches me so much:
Challenges my ability
To perceive you,
To communicate,
And to discover
Who you really are.
You require meticulous care.
I know
Through the experience
We have shared
That
Though we are all on different levels,
We are the same.
