She Was the Odd-One-Out

In my class she was the odd-one-out
Kept her craziness to herself
Drew secretly in private
A prolific writer
Extraordinary
Silent talent
We feared her
Warned by
Some

At least they aren't handed rocks like poor Charlie Brown; yet we miss the fact that the different ones do bring something new to our lives. Luv it.

I rely, adore, and believe in the odd ones, my dear.

Ignoring the whole picture we might often arrive to wrong conclusions dear, Caren. A wonderful message!

Thank you Demetrios; the ones who are shunned in grade school are the Lady Gagas, Madonnas, and Pinks.

Often people are afraid of what they do not understand or possess themselves, Mahtab.
