I once read that all grapes look the same when peeled

(apparently, red wine is red because they chuck the skins in the mix).

To represent the naked ape - One black, one white and one red grape Peel away the skin they’re in And you won’t know which wore which skin

Well said, Terry. Looking not at form but spirit that dwells within, we see God’s light in all

true of us humans, peel away our skin and you don't know which one wore which color...this was clever, humorous, and insightful all at the same time. Loved it!
