Take Pride In Your Achievements
Why do some folks belittle an education
Looking down on those with degrees?
Jokes about the educated in circulation
Making learning like an unwanted disease.
Many smart folks are ashamed to admit
Their diplomas, degrees, and certificates,
For some will laugh, calling them unfit
Like they are unappreciated illegitimates.
All of us have some needed unique ability
We all make up our societies’ inclusion --
Some with limitations, others’ great agility
We must never on others cast aspersion.
