-Harmony

Why are we considered different because of the colour of our skin
We may differ on the outside but are all the same within!

We are all human 
All breathe the same air
All have needs and wants 
All love, feel and care
 
We all have strengths and weaknesses 
Have dreams and fears
We all feel joy and happiness 
Experience sorrow and shed tears

Yes ,we are all individuals
Outwardly not the same
Though inwardly we are all equal
Unique special beings …we each have a name!
 
We do not always understand each other
Or agree with what others may do
That’s what makes us human
Makes us, me and you 
 
As long as we keep it simple
Show respect, be fair, be kind
No matter the colour of our skin or cultural differences
We are one…In heart, spirit, soul and mind!

If we all lived together in harmony
What a better place this world would be!
