We Are More Than We Are

We are more than we are
Undiluted, united we are one
We are not scared by the scary scar
Faultless, fearless we will never run

We are more than we are
With voices and virtues we’re born
We will never fall for the fires from afar
Virile, vibrant, we will fear no gun

We are more than we are
Courteous, colourful, full of fun
We’ll join our hands to uphold this golden jar 
Chaos and cacophony we’ll surly shun

We are more than we are
In this pot of soup with passion we burn
The blood that binds us we’ll never mar
Simple soupers, super soupers, we are one

Amen!!!! Love the idea that Poetry Soup is a "golden jar." Such a fitting description. Wonderful uplifting poem. Thank you for letting me know about it. It was a pleasure to read. Karen
