A Different Light · fiction, nonfiction, essays & poetry about disability
To be or not to be just like Romeo and Juliette
that shining light incandescent like a fairies wing
that incredible courage samson and goliath
we are but, special miracles parts of a secret puzzle
imagination is more important than knowledge
like all beautiful fairy tales we must really believe in THE SOURCE
by Indigo
