A Little Inspiration
At Autism 2 Awesome, we believe that a little inspiration can make a world o f difference and have included a little something that has inspired us in the hopes that it can do the same for you.
Rainbow Life
You may think I'm different
The way I think and play
But wouldn't life be boring
If all was the same way
See I will change this world
A little bit by bit
And when my life is over
This will be my gift
I'll leave the world a thinking
A mix of logic and my dreams
And there will be no limits
Nothing will seem extreme
Think of it like ice cream
Some are just vanilla
I'm a rainbow swirl
All colours a shimmer
