Diversity

Diversity The brochure paints a beautiful picture Of a plush and exquisite get-a-way Lavish accommodations, and food Beaches and art in a vast array They seek to exploit all the virtues As if no other issues matter A dreamland of utopia Just live for today, - forget the latter In another brochure, there I see A plea to help a hungry child Basic essentials, food and drink A place to shelter, them from the wild A war-torn land of poverty Many homeless, in the cold Meager items, mean more to them Than luxuries of silver and gold Diversity, has always been rampant It's been around in every date Solomon's luxuries and his wealth Or the beggar at the rich man's gate At the foot of Calvary's cross Everyone stands the same Great are small, and small are great When they gather, in Jesus name Colan L Hiatt = 02-01-15 © All Rights Reserved

I see how two brochures can conceive a thoughtful analogy and gIve birth to a beautiful, compelling write. Diversity reaches beyond this life...it all depends on each one's choice. A 7. :-)
