...Someone near and dear to me 
Has a child with Downs Syndrome,
Who, more often than not
Is beyond difficult to control.

The little boy is six years old 
But acts as if he’s two,
He can’t speak...

Lessons

...Lessons from one's environment, one's disappointment, and distractions choose wisely. One's pain of loss of
anyone can be healing. Lessons

Echoing woes

...Petals drenched in poison pearls of emerald envy, 
carefully placed objectives whilst adrift in my tears of realization 

Longing sorrowful souls among lilac lakes,
