Her great-grandfather was an Irish lad with bright red hair. He went to Timbuktu and met a Muslim, black and beautiful. Their oldest daughter wed a fair-skinned Jew! They had a son who wed an Asian girl with French and Tongan blood, but nobody can believe the beauty of THEIR daughter - a stunning product of diversity!

Hello Andrea, I'm home. Interesting poem for me to read, as I've just returned from Bali and Thailand -ah a refreshing trip it was. And during this time I have seen many of these mixed faces, and I've wallowed in a cultural soup. Such truth you write.
