Honest Communication Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Reaching into the atmosphere, touching upon meanings
of life as it pertains to each of us in turn.

Looking into our minds, reaching conclusions, forming
personal opinions, many times creating stereotypes that
don't need to be exercised in language.

Hoping that racist statements aren't spoken so that the
rest of us can continue to enjoy each other's company.

Communicating honestly and genuinely without hatred or
prejudice.
