Autism has gained me some
very special friends
by my former teacher Mrs. Kennedy
I am your teacher, aiming high
You are my student, my incredible guy
I am your keeper, some hours each day
You are my tutor, show me your way
I am your coach, tracking the score
You are my Olympian, stubborness your core
I am your stage, let the music start
You are my laughter, song of my heart
I am your words, reaching within
You are my boy with the crooked grin
I am you listener, measuring those sighs
You are my boy with the flirtatious eyes
I am your scent, left side then right
You are my morning, let the day take flight
I am your guide, hike the hill
You are my challenge, strong of will
I am your audience, watching you learn
You are my vision, for which we yearn
I am you teacher, letting you go
You are my child, I hope you know
