Oh Saints, how naïve you seem to be,
trying to paint the world in one hue we see,
as if it'll solve all the problems we face,
and make everything a better place.
But how can you ignore the colors of life?
Each unique, each necessary, oh dear Saints, why?
your monochromatic approach is plain to see,
as you fail to understand the beauty of diversity!
So let's not paint the world in one color, Oh Saints,
Instead, let's embrace all colors until the world ends,
for it is only through acceptance and love
that we can create a world that we can be proud of.
All religious head is trying their level best to make everyone follow their religion, Is it a race to have more people on their side or something else. Thought provoking poetry from you pen.

I, Bri Edwards, believe that the members of the 'human race' will fail, at times horribly, to 'embrace' and 'love' all persons. It's nearly incomprehensible! !

line 7: I would capitalize 'Your', as it appears to be a new sentence. Growing up, I thought of myself (and others of usually 'European descent') as 'White', (cont.)
As I commented a month age, i don't even know if you are takeing 'hue' literally, i.e. to refer to, I think, human skin color, or if you refer to something else like LGBT or Jew, Moslem, Hindu, etc. : ) Why not have a Poet's Notes? ?
