 A meeting of minds A blending of souls Intertwining free flowing thought Exchanging ideas as precious gifts, One to the other hoping to uplift, Never judging,always accepting, An engagement of spirit, lovely and free, Communicating union for humanity © Mary Ann Harrington These poems express my assumptions on what my friends with severe movement, sensory, and language difficulties may be expressing through their fear, anger, loneliness, stubborn resolve and frustration. I have served as a teacher of individuals with autism for 18 years. What they have taught me was to be sure of nothing, and open myself to the extraordinary. It has been and continues to be a remarkable ride.
