How Unfortunate Vi

Oh, how unfortunate are all those bigoted people

Who pay attention only to the color of one's skin

While leaving the treasures that lie hidden into his soul  

Forever unearthed to remain thus never to be seen!

Oh Beautiful Demetrios. I so totally agree. I used to explain it to my children this way. "Do you know why people are different colors? It's because that's the way God chose to make them. If you don't like someone because of the color of their skin you are saying God Made A Mistake and we all know God Does Not Make Mistakes. Do YOU Want To Tell God He Made A Mistake? How Boring it would be if everyone and everything was the same color." Love this my friend. God Bless, JB

Everytime we criticize, we criticize the creator - God. Beautiful flowers.

Wonderfully penned, dear friend Demetrios, individuals, are still riddled with hatred and bigotry in their souls despite attempts. I love the white flowers. Have a blessed and safe day
