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 .
