Unique

You are like your Mother
No you are like your Father
How can this be
What do they see

Different hair colours
Eyes too
And they still say
They are like you

The way we talk
The way we walk 
Look at your family what do you see
Surprise surprise similarity

The traits continue
Through one and all
To show what is mine
Is from a long line

Do you see what I mean
For you to understand I am quite keen
We are all connected to each other
All sister and brother

But never forget
There is a caveat
For in life's game
We are not the same

For every woman and man
He has a different plan
He throws away your mould
Is what we are told

So remember this
For it is bliss 
You are a unique work of art
Down to every part

A wonderful being
There for the seeing
