Color Blind

All life is precious Why must we see just Black or White There is evil here at work I pray it fades into the night May we all get blind to color This is my wish for all of man If we put our faith in God and show love Then I know we can May you find true love and peace And feel God’s loving grace I pray the wind stays at your back And helps you keep your pace No more, white this or black that Let’s all start living life as one With Jesus in our hearts I know we’ll get it done August 1, 2020 Heart Truth Poetry Contest Sponsor: Chantelle Anne Cooke

A wise man once said, "Let us judge not on the color of skin but rather on the content of one's character". May we live up to that ideal and see others as God sees, not with racial prejudice or agenda. Amen to your words, Mark. Congrats on your win ~ John

He indeed was a wise man. I have a dream which he wrote in 1963 5 years before his death
