Open seas, Open sky

Make me want to fly

Far from the rules that bind our days

That makes our minds trapped always

I want my life simplified

What Is Magical? by Rithik Sinhasan

  I attended a writing workshop and one of the prompts was to write about what is magical in the everyday. What do you find magical?

       

                          What is Magical?

So many magical things are all around me

Don’t have to be a time traveler to seek them out you see

Take the time to look into your heart

To recognize that magic is a part.

Have a fantastic family? That’s magical

Have a full belly? That’s magical 

Go swim when you want to? That’s magical 

Have friends to hang out with? That’s magical 

Most tease loud in silent stares by Arth S.

 Hi you all, this is my first try to write in a blog. I am eleven and live in Virginia and I am an RPM’er. Thank you for reading my poem.

Most tease loud in silent stares - By Arth S.

Most tease loud in silent stares

Mouthed no words and you are there  

My smothering, stalling, ominous foe 

I’m telling you off but you don’t know.

Mouths can smile and smirk you see

Might move and mutter words to me 

Maybe we can see the store 

May not wonder woes no more.

Isn’t it old amidst new image

Miles travelled in differing pace 

Come to me and let’s find ways

To pass each other on smiling days. 

Silent Mermaid by Brielle Stewart

 Silent Mermaid was my first attempt to write vocals to go along with my stunning music.  I’m so pleased with the result.  I’m debuting this song on my blog that I share with my loving friends. I’m so happy to have them all in my life. This is for them. 

Silent Mermaid

Mermaid who can’t sing

Soon you will rejoice

Swimming in the starlight

Soon to find your voice

Swimming in the sea of tranquility

Making your new rules

Stay strong

Now you belong

Loving friends will see you through.

Shine on mermaid. Shine on!

Mermaid so stunning

Your voice is in the world

Silent no more

Your sweet song will be heard.

 A lot of people could spend a day in my body, like the movie "Freaky Friday."

I wish you could experience the total of my senses in my world.

It is sometimes not easy to describe - it is beautiful and chaotic at the same time.

Before RPM (Rapid Prompting Method) I couldn't use speech or other means of communicating.

RPM is the way my senses needed to be taught and I'm thankful to Soma for understanding my autistic mind.

I am an autistic man who lives in Centreville, Virginia.

I have a wonderful family and great support system.

I wish that every autistic child could grow up in a system that embraced the acceptance I have.

I'm looking forward to my future and learning new ways to be more independent.

That doesn't mean I won't need help sometimes from others. 

Helping me usually gives others a new perspective and a very deep appreciation that we are ALL actually INTERDEPENDENT.
