Color Blind
How can we understand each other's color,
When we use the same flavored word?
It's impossible to say it any duller,
And through our glasses the meaning is blurred.
To you something bright as the sky,
Will always strike me as navy blue.
With a fire truck we could try,
But to me it is simply maroon.
Something as distinct as a rainbow,
To

I once believe love
Has two color black and white
Why I'm seeing gold.

Color Blind
Like light refracted through a prism,
Continuous, yet some see schism.
The loudest voices, incomplete;
Ironic, for they’re not discrete.

Color Blind
Oh Lord, I feel sad for the world today,
My heart aches for injustices worldwide.
Bullies are losing it, will love have its say?
Nevertheless, I know love will win in the end.
Love's the most powerful force in the universe,
I believe healing will come when we let love in.
We all are brothers and sisters although diverse,
God is love,

The Color of Holy Water
It's not the color of Your skin
that redeemed and pardoned me from sin
The color and shape of Your nose mattered not
I was killer enemy of me, but You forget me not
You caused colorless rain song to soothe each soul
and showed the lovely rainbow, each shore as school
Where would the world be sans the Savior?
the Creator

I have a dream

So many folks then
smiled and beamed
But things are no more
what they once seemed
a color-blind society's
no longer esteemed

Color Blind
All life is precious
Why must we see just Black or White
There is evil here at work
I pray it fades into the night
May we all get blind to color
This is my wish for all of man
If we put our faith in God and show love
Then I know we can
May you find true love and peace
And feel

God Is Color Blind
Written: by Miracle Man

Jesus died on the cross showing His love for each,
like Him, we can love the person but hate the sin.
Showing brotherly love should become our outreach,
lets stop judging people by pigment of their skin.
Social justice begins with valuing the masses,
not influenced by ethnic or cultural ties.
As people, we must

I look in the mirror to see I'm white
I think that it is such a pretty sight,
I stand proud as a peacock
then see we don't have a lock...
All of the world's colors gives it its might!

No hate to show with love inside

Different colors on their own
I like the sun; a happy

Color Blind
Some people say they don't see color.
I look for others who do see color
and want to make abundant variety with it,
with us and of us.
I long to see more multiculturing colors
and less monocultural monochromatic
shades of ecopolitically grey responsibility
for opportunities at-risk
among those who don't think I should matter.
Some people see color and say "Why?"
Yet when I

Color Blind
I approach her with the same
Love I approach my family with.
Her skin is black.
I try to speak a few words in her
Native language to welcome her.
Her skin is brown.
I married a Chinese/Hawaiian
and our child is beautiful.
His skin is yellow/brown.
I write poetry about the Native
Americans to celebrate them.
Their skin is red.
I fit in with every race

Two little boys are playing in the mud.
Both covered from head to toe.
They play as friends with just the thought of mud.
When they finished they dumped water on their heads.
One of the boys look at the other and said" your mud didn't come off"

Everybody deserves their right
Freedom now without a fight
Everybody will walk free
Loving their country, you and me
Greet a friend, walk our street
Freedoms way with the right to meet
Children grow with laughter and fun
