Racism
Racism.
Why is it so?
Yet one really knows.
Whether white or black, boy or girl, you or me….
don’t you see.
We need to come together, make it stop, for right or wrong, it’s too much!
Election ’08 has made its choice, votes have come
and gone.
Barack Obama has won.
It’s a change.
A big change.
A huge change.
A change some aren’t ready for.
So now we have a huge “chore”.
Be open minded.
Whatever color skin, or religion.
Let it be!
A hug, a handshake.
A smile or a “hi”.
Just something nice.
He’s God’s child too.
It’s not just you.
For my last words….
“Diversity forever and for all!”
