This is a very good mono rhymed poem.
God end rhymes. Yes, I think a little shorter would have sent it to the heights it deserves, yet, take nothing away. Well thought out.
A very well done.
Best wishes.

Comment from royowen
Of course hatred destroys the hater not the hatred, (unless hatred gives lives legs) Christ gives good advice, wearing innocence like a child, choosing to trust, or forgiving, service to others is quite often the most difficult, be willing to ckean toilets if necessary. Pride is the biggy. "Haughtiness comes before a fall, pride before before destruction" Proverbs 16:18. You've written a fine poem, mostly in mono rhyme, well done, blessings Roy

Comment from karenina
Despite the pre-pre Christmas season this rings of hope and calling on our better selves to step ahead of each of our biases or indifferences to others. So true that "We must admit we are the same..." Used to be they'd say walk a mile in another's shoes before passing judgement... Where'd THAT sentiment go? Thanks for the uplifting message!

It would be wonderful if our government would open their eyes and see how they are destroying our country. I wish many others would open their eyes and see what's really going on. My husband says their brainwashed. Who knows. Thank you for sharing.

This is a nice Christmas poem to celebrate the upcoming holiday season that looms just around the corner. Our local Christmas store already has their "Christmas Land" open already. I love the holiday and all the festivities that go with it. Good job!

There are some positive and wise attitudes expressed here, summarised in a need for positivity, acceptance inclusion and love. In our essence, we are all the same. Interesting poem, expressing your thoughts well.

Beautiful presentation.
The rhymes do not seem forced. Your poem flows well. It draws on emotions and it presents strong images.
