My Wish For the World Is
I wish that people would see each other as
they see themselves.
Because we all are connected you and I, we
are all part of the human race.
We must put on the eyes of a child; they don’t
see color nor how much money a person has in
their bank accounts.
I’m talking about when children were young
and innocent.
And not influenced by who they should engage
with.
Before they were made aware of color and
fractions.
At this stage, all they saw was a human being;
they weren’t aware of the pigmentation of the
skin.
Only then can the world walk in fairness with
their fellow man.
