James Edward Lee Sr. Poet Dramatic Verse

Notes About The Poem

What Is White

Why ? 
White, what's right and or wrong with it
Is it pure, is it natural
Supremely bred, seldom lead
White, what's right and or wrong with it
White is the light that flashes before our eyes
White is a color, whatever there all so many others
Does it matter (really ) GOD creator
Why am I surprised to see the white in your eyes
You know God ain't He ain't no color God
All shades are His, we're all His kids 
Rainbow our His promises
All colors are equal
Why ? 
White, what's right and or wrong with it
Is it pure, is it natural
Supremely bred, seldom lead
Does it matter (really ) GOD creator
All colors are equal
Is my true self my shaded pigmentation
Is it white my soul or is it transparent
Doesn't matter God make it
What's it's all about man says
Around my eyes are white
my teeth are white
my bones are white
But what if my skin not white
Would I still be equal
I'm a witness it's alright, if not white
White, what's right and or wrong with it
White is the light that flashes before our eyes
White is a color, whatever there all so many others
Does it matter (really ) GOD creator
Why am I surprised to see the white in your eyes
You know God ain't He ain't no color God
All shades are His, we're all His kids 
Rainbow our His promises
All colors are equal
Why ? 
White is a color, whatever there all so many others
Does it matter (really ) GOD creator
There's no wrong in white, if God involved in it
The creator of the universe left the colors of the rainbow as a promise
