No Mistakes

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder It comes in many ways We make our minds up instantly And that's usually how it stays Skinny, short, fat or tall Everyone has their taste Why do we always dismiss someone For their looks, in such a haste? Why do we have to judge someone By the color of their skin? We close our minds to acceptance And we just can't let them in For everybody is different And still we're all the same If you can't accept them for who they are You have only yourself to blame Beauty shines from the inside out It not always what you see Maybe it's not about who they were But who they strive to be For we're created in God's own image And He doesn't make mistakes Maybe only a second glance Is simply, all it takes
