A Different Mind

Author's Note- a response to the novel The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time by Mark Haddon

A boy full of love,

Full of happiness,

Of love.

He is different from you and I,

But smart like all the rest.

He sees things different,

In a whole new light.

He understands logic,

And knows right from wrong.

But what people see,

Is different from what he sees.

Why is it thought of to be bad

To be different.

In our world,

Aren't we all just that,

Different?

His mind,

A beautiful thing,

Shows him pictures,

Like our minds,

But he sees everything different,

With a different mind.
