The elementary truth of man's kinship

Elementary

by nomi338

Truth is as clear as the nose on your face
We started out members of the same race
Time and movement changed the color of skin
But we remained the same persons within

Man verbalizes what is on his mind
Life was created according to its kind
With clear distinction between man and beast
We are one, from the greatest to the least

We hate and love each other just the same
When we do wrong things, we bear similar shame
We can have fun, while playing the same games
We even share the same family names

We love to eat the very same food
When angered, we can be equally rude
Most of us do not look good in the nude
Happy or sad, we can share the same mood

Difference is largely found in the mind
If you look closely, I'm sure you will find
Hatred is from the rebel, the Devil
We're blessed from above, by God's divine Love

It is totally foolish to hate on the basis of color when there are so many other things we can and should be doing as a species, things like trying to preserve the space we occupy here on the earth. as well as solving this pandemic, etc.
