Colors of a Man

Oh where do we come from That we judge a man by his color What heritage what rock Did we crawl out of What seed spawned us One God Or many Gods One for each color Or maybe just one for one another Oh colors what do you call them When they are worn upon a man Do you have more admiration For the color of a bird Than the color of a man

A profound verse, Brian. I often wonder why we judge..and I surmise one thing, unfortunate as it is, "ignorance" and fear..or both. Enjoyed this. Thanks for sharing and welcome to PS Hope you enjoy it here. Don't forget to read and leave comments when you have the time. Always, Annalise
