Listen to poem:

Respect What Others Have To Say

I say black you say white
you say day and i say night
i say go you say stay
everyone wants thier say.

Who is right and who knows the facts
No one knows and thats a fact
Crystals balls and tarot cards
shows a future that could have dark clouds.

Will you listen to what others say
respect thier views and walk away 
or call them names and try to shame
thats the new facebook way.

Call them nazis question whos thier dad
forget the good times in the past
holding opioions is not a crime 
not accepting others  should be, mind

Acceptance, forgiveness, compromise, respect, caring, loving, honoring --- all of these things are evidenced by your poem if one only takes time to read it for the value it shows. Thanks for this enlightening piece.
