From 'Growing Up' by Audrey Coatesworth
Judge Me Not
Judge me not by my face
The colour of my hair
Judge me not by appearance
As that would not be fair
I came to earth as I am
No discussion of my look
I had no pattern to study
No choice from out a book
Judge me not by ability
To read, write, or understand
Let it be by my endeavour
The use put to my hand
The courage in adversity
Endurance getting through
Kindness to another
So please-
Judge me by what I do
