We Are One

WE ARE ONE

She stood in front of the painting in the large gallery. Looking at it made her feel like crying, it was so beautiful. The colors swirled into one another and the mood of the painting was so poignant, it made her think of…………

The vast horizon on which sat the shining sun,

As all the brilliant colors mixed together as one.

It was not a Vincent Van Gogh or a Picasso to say the least,

But it nonetheless was beautiful its presence spoke of peace.

There was no doubt that it had taken lots of time,

Since every color known to man seemed to inter-wine.

The colors merged together and beautifully swirled,

Resembling all the colored people who make up this wonderful world.

We must realize that everybody is unique,

And we should respect each other, whether we are strong or weak.

Since racism destroys the beauty in us all,

And now is the time we must take a call.

Because racism is a problem each of us must face,

Working all as one before it is much too late.

And with open eyes and open hearts,

We must see the person not their skin.

And come to the understanding,

That racism has to end.

Because we all have hearts and feel pain too,

And fighting over colors is a destructive thing to do.
