Lukas Ficklin Poet Quatrain

Accepting Diversity Myself

An abandoned riverbed lay between 		
What I know is in my mind to be true		
And the dejected stares of another		
For I refuse to be ashamed and bruised						

A charge of purpose brightens the concept 	
That freedom applies to few: and many		
Beauty thrives within freedom, so thank you	
For being you and letting me be me
