This is a poem about racism and how we can put an end to it. |
| One man despises the other On the grounds so ludicrous Often culture , often color But , why do these beasts fuss ? The sun shines ever so bright Never disparages a soul On the one and all Who live within its might The rivers flow perilously Amidst the stones that cower its path Streaming through them ferociously And still moving on , very fast The tree grows , and grows so tall Birds , squirrels live within its hall It never shakes or ponders Instead submits to their needs and grows longer If the nature of the earth Can live , ever so peacefully Why not the man Grow above his ignoble needs? The bee stings the flower It never retaliates It took its elixir , that made it shower And grows above the self – hate The apparent beauty Will fade away Like the leaf that grew Harbored a few And gave away . |
