Another visual art inspired verse..


Poem Artwork

 

 The sub-conscious mind, a place you can think,

Devoid of skin colour, creating a link,

A spiritual connection spread far & wide,

Allows us to put prejudice aside,

To share thoughts with our brothers,

Fathers, sisters or mothers,

Whether that be of blood or of creed,

Or those who feel, they just have a need,

To share thoughts of the life that they live,

Or the spiritual love, they freely give,

So others will know of their hurt or pain,

Or how being different, can be a strain

The knowledge of others, the feelings they lack

Who with hatred & savagery, need to attack

All, who share love, with a certain mystique

Because they can’t see, we all are, unique

Having their own ways, but still human too

With a mind, body & soul, just like you

Stunning in not only beauty but its true wisdom. We stunt our own selves by refusing to accept and learn from others, esp. those who are a bit different than we are.

It's more than color we have to be blind to. My biggest pet peeve is ignorance. When we are ignorant we are unproductive and boring. If we open our minds and our hearts to other people, regardless of how they look and even how they act, we will be surprised how much they are just like us. In the twenty first century we need to break down all the prejudices of the past and leave them behind.
