BLACK AND WHITE

Poem Commentary

What more can I say? How great it would be to live in a world devoid of racism,and judge each other not by the colour of our skins, but by the simple fact that we were all created in the image of God.

BLACK AND WHITE

A black dog meets a white one
And they will play and have much fun
A black cat and a white cat
Will roll and frolic on the mat

A black bird sits on a branch
With a white one and both will dance
A black goat will eat the grass
Whilse nearby white sheep will pass

A black ape in the forest
A white rabbit will not detest
A black tadpole in the lake
Will greet the white fish when awake

A black cup and a white cup
Do the same job they fill us up
Black and white are worn daily
The two colours we often see

For a white cup to be useful
A blackboard then is used in school
And to have grey a colour fine
Then black and white have to combine

Then why shouldn't we human beings
Forget pigment and live as kins
A black or white in God's presence
Is all the same with no difference

I really like this...it is so true. The color of one's skin should not make a difference. Nicely done.

Thanks Camilla.

Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.
