Hand linked paper children
So designed
And cut so carefully by
The Creators scissors

He skillfully cut the pattern
With great pleasure he made them
Thinking as he gave them color of all the
Pretty hues of the flowers in his garden

Or perhaps he took a prism
And sat it in the sun
And said I'll design a human being
I'll pick a color for each and everykind

Then God smiled
When he was through
So why can't
Me and You?

Oh, yes! This is terrific! Why can't we, indeed?

oh, this so uniquely lovely and wouldn't the world be a more loving place if they made you Queen! My dear friend, you are a heart that is full of love...

A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails.

Songbird this is wonderful!
Tis true, God created many things with great variety of colors. To bad we humans sometimes fail to recognize the beauty in all things.
Most importantly, in each other.
Hugs,

Nicely done.......I thought this poem was great!



I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily
