Acceptance Poem by Audrey Heller

It would be wonderful, to see people come
together, not only in times of need. We
should never sit in judgement, for we know
not, where it may lead. It's important to
accept someone, whether they come from
near, or far. It shouldn't have any bearing,
just like them, for who they are! If you choose
not to befriend someone, it should be because
you, don't like the things they do, or what they
stand for. That is your privilege, should you
not want, to open that door! Not everyone
you meet, can you like. There are those who
possess the knack, of rubbing you the wrong
way. It's then you have a legitimate reason,
for keeping them at bay. Never for a moment
should it be, because they're different. What
it boils down to, we're all the same. Remember
by being prejudice, you're the one, to blame!
