Ashlie, a Special Student
by
Joris John Heise
She smiles like fall sunshine through gold trees,
Her brightness bold, thick, rich, and cheering up—
She fills the hearts of others like a cup
Of happy, and her own sweet heart, which sees
So many others', offers kindness--keys
Which open doors of hope. Like warm, thick soup
She feeds with gentleness her nearby group
Of friends and family—she’s an April breeze—
This nice, this slow, kind soul. She enriches--like
Some rose that wafts its pleasing air around
Her and the world glows, and she’s a kite
A-flying in the sky, and gorgeous sound
Of waltzing music, soothing words: all
Those springs that make our sphere a better ball.
