OUR BROTHERS & SISTERS FROM HONG KONG, BRAZIL, CHINA, MEXICO, RUSSIA and AFRICA MADE THE COAT I WEAR TODAY!"

by Judy Joy Jones

Today i wear a coat
of many colors
made by my brothers in Africa

Tomorrow i wrap myself
in a bejeweled sarong
sewn by my sisters in Hong Kong

And drink coffee
made by families in Brazil

Last nite
i enjoyed a symphony
ushering in
the Chinese new year

Went to
a Russian ballet
the other day

And love watching
Mexicos finest
late night tv

The planets made smaller
by the love we offer
thru the goods
we barter buy sell and trade

Blazin rainbow hues
of you and me
lighting all earths skies at night
a visual delight
our rainbow hued galaxy
with one heartbeat!

You wrote such a lovely poem. It expresses clearly and simply the joys of our diverse and interconnected humanity.

A wonderful honoring of diversity. But it makes me wonder. The Internet now links us all in a nano second. Will it lead to an international monoculture eventually with no diversity at all? Perhaps not. As long as there is creative competition, there are new niches forming all the time. The uniqueness of these niches is what makes diversity so wonderful.

Why anyone would fear diversity, is totally beyond me. Fear like that is unnatural and untenable in the 21st century. You are helping eliminating fear with every poem you write. Please continue�
