For Gabriel - Who Can'T Really Speak
My nephew
has severe autism
He has a tough time in
this world
I've taught him to sing snatches
of Nat Kind Cole's "NatureBoy" and the
Lemon Piper's "Green Tambourine"
We all love this kid
It would break his mother's heart
If he wound up in a group home
So have a kind thought
for Gabriel
"We must love one another or die"
