Array ( [sid] => 32470 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Color is color blind! [time] => 2004-01-23 02:10:16 [hometext] => No matter what color we are, We should stop judging one and other based on race. Underneath we are all the same! [bodytext] => ------______------

A flower is not one color,
but a tree is always green
Life is filled with many pleasures,
and life is more than one's dream
Green can come in many colors,
but is still labeled as its shade
And life can be funny,
because we stereotype all things along the way

Stigma is part of society,
just like we all try to follow the norm
And if we choose a different path,
we are labeled in different forms

We all have motivation
our determination is the key,
We don't always know what doors to open
so we chance it, we wait...and see
One wrong turn and we tend to loose track
but its important to move on, and not to look back

We should think of future success
and all the ways we can succeed.
Everyone has an opinion,
its up to you to choose which to believe.

A flower may look blue,
but is seen by others as pink.
It doesn't matter who's right or wrong
we differ, especially when we think.

He had his dream; He got to the top,
Inside everyone, White or Black, His dream can never stop.
Erase the hate, erase the pain, we need to walk hand and hand,
If we do this, we too can see the glory of the promise land!

I dont think Mr King would mind,
He too knew, Color itself is Color blind! [comments] => 2 [counter] => 457 [topic] => 21 [informant] => MajesticPoet [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 3 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )
Color is color blind!

A very good write. We are all God's children. The time will come when all mankind will live in peace with one another. We might not see it but the coming generations that is my hope and my prayer . Have a great day now from bernard.

This was a damn good poem and I love the message. You wrote this one very well. I wish more people saw this way. It would erase alot of the pointless types of hatred.
