What Color Are You?

~ Color is Only Skin Deep ~

 

A masterpiece is the color of your skin!

It covers the total man within.
The color of you hair is the crown upon your head. 
It shimmers in the sunlight like many nylon thread.

The color of your eyes are like a unique kaliedescope. 
It tells of love and fear and hate and hope. 
The color of the blood running throughout your veins: 
tells of many valleys, hills and plains. 

Then there is the heart; 
what color are the walls?
The heart speaks of good times and hard times. 
Some you prefer not to recall. 

The color of your breath depends upon the thickness of your sigh. 
It gives life to all your cells and makes time pass by. 
The color of your love tells the secrets of your mind.
It reveals areas of life and wounds you've had to bind.

So by this I dare to say,
Please, do not judge others by the color of their skin.
For the colors to be assessed are all contained within!
And whatever color you've been given, 
accept it and be kind.

For the Only Great Creator is truly color blind!
