Amongst Little Things Poem by Amanda Shelton

Amongst Little Things

Rating: 5.0


Amongst the grass I am like a dew drop, shinny and free I glitz and bling.

Amongst the beaches I am a pebble,
I grind and squeek, I ride the tides and suff the turf.

Amongst the stars I am a speck of dust, I came from unknown, I bring knowledge and time.

Amongst the trees I am a mushroom, I am small but powerful, my roots are strong I am part of a system of life.

Amongst the fish I am a shrimp, I am small but mighty and brave.

Amongst the people I might seem week but I can make you think, my poetry is deep and I will make you dig deeper into the possibilities.

Amongst the horses I am a unicorn, I am rare and bright, I am creative and brave. You'll never forget me.

Amongst the little things I can seem larger than life. I wear my heart on my sleeve and my mind is open to possibilities. I am autistic.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
This is a poem about my autism. I feel small amongst everyone else. I am unique and wired differently. I had to learn how to love myself. Autism is not an illness or disease. Autism is a person who was born with a different type of brain. We are the unicorns of society.
