Carer – For a dear friend working with autistic children

Caring for the damaged child
Hidden deep inside their mind,
You shine your light –

Take them by their little hand,
Lead them into the world,
To help them find their feet,
A way to stand –

Teach them to run and dance,
And sing and play, to learn and share –

You who delves beyond the silence,
Along dark, buried trails,
You who finds and heals the broken mind –

May the healer heal you
When you find yourself broken,
May you be led to sanctuary,
And held tight,
When life makes you shy
Away from the light.
