Tolerance

Nationalities, cultures, customs All peoples of our planet Earth Liberals, Conservatives, Independents This is my take for what it's worth Tolerance, sensitivity, understanding Of other ideas and concepts Tenderness, kindness, gentleness Such admirable qualities to be kept Passionate, Patient, Peacefulness All belong to nature's creed Generous, honourable, unselfishness A hand up to someone in need Farsightedness, courtesy, flexibility The die is cast when we're born Innovator, inventor, pioneer A leader so passionate so warm Excellent characteristics these virtues We seek them all of our lives A balance derived from honour The pinnacle for which we strive
