Kindness

A power struggle of the races
doesn't' need to be
as skin pigmentation
is what we simply see.

Though deep within each soul
is more than red, yellow, white or brown
there lives the spark of kindness
and generosity to be found.

An interracial society
brings more that variety
It blends and enriches cultures
and inspires the world to see...

That prejudice and racism
never should exist
just love through integration
where happiness shall persist.

Good poem Robert, my opinion, as often the case, reality differs widely from dc-bubble narrative....diverse communities going about their work & family life is the norm in USA, a far cry from the "divide & conquer" Kleptocracy in Washington....
