Down's boy in black

Heavy, he likes to

loll in time

leaving nothing


unsaid unsaid

but from nothing

comes something divine.


He makes

something out of

nothing and that’s sublime.

  1. I have a niece who is a child with Down's. This is beautiful. Captures the eternal sense of such children.

    Your opening stanza was especially striking.
