Who Are We

 





Each to their own

 

Or so they say

 

Some folks are straight

 

Others are gay

 

Some are outspoken

 

Some are coy

 

Some self opinionated

 

they do annoy

 

Some play emotional games

 

While others are rather tame

 

Manipulation, is another’s thing

 

Giving puppets a life by pulling their string

 

Praise is what some may crave

 

And if they don’t get it they rant and rave

 

Others don’t care about adoration

 

But very alert with anticipation

 

We all are different, that is good

 

If not we could be made of wood.

 

So live and let live, look at your self and see

 

For God made a melting pot for you and me

    WOW! WHERE DID THAT COME FROM VERY GOOD GLADY

    YES GOD DID MAKE A MELTING POT FOR ALL, A MIX OF PERSONAL BEING ALL INTO ONE WHAT A MIXED BAG FOR HIM TO READ.
    I CAN RELATE TO THAT I WISH I COULD READ EVERY ONE BUT I GUESS IT WOULD BE A REALLY SAD WORLD TO LIVE IN

    Darling Libra

    I love this ditty
    not because its pretty
    but its like Pixieland
    very small but grand.

    We have pagan wixies
    and born again pixies
    fairies who are gay
    others who just play.

    Fairies old and young
    some like ribold puns
    elflords with fancy swords
    strung from gossamer cords.

    Faires are often green
    pink, brown rarely seen
    some are whitest white
    which changes every night.

    Basically, I do agree
    with you argument see
    though argue I doubt
    thats what your about.

    Smoosh

    I think it's sad he people fight over the differences between each other instead of embracing them and the similarities too God made us all unique for a reason. I think this poem is very good and it really made me think. I hope a lot of people read it
    love

    What a great little poem Libra, reminding us all about how different we are, the world would be a very boring place if we were all cut from the same mould. Acceptance of our differences is the key here...

    Thanks for sharing

    terrific

    Wow Barb! this truly tells a complete story that is so often forgotten in this most incredulous messed up society that we are now living in in Britain and America it seems fear has taken over common sense. Amazing inspiring poem but this is becoming a norm with you as your talent has grown to such wonderful heights. You are a Natural my dear one. Larry--
