Definition of a Person
The color of one’s skin doesn’t define the person
It’s the persons character and soul that defines them
The strength of their heart and the wisdom of past years
Letting go of the past and the flood of shed tears
The courage one bestows to protect and move on
And the fear one admits when one has done wrong
Hope that they spread to the weary and weak
Forgiveness to all who had done a bad deed
The loyalty one shows to all in their hearts
Understanding to all those who had to part
But most importantly is the love that they show
That defines the person s character, mind, and soul.
