People
judge others by appearance
Their
hair and clothing, their color of skin
Where
did they learn such incoherence?
What’s
outside matters less than what’s within
A
precious jewel is of little surprise
Inside
a box with plush velvet-lining
But
its value you’d be unlikely to surmise
Inside
a box that’s less than shining
Likewise
the thing of little worth
Does
not gain value fancy dressed
No
silken garb found here on Earth
Will
elevate what is unblessed
A
diamond in the ground is rough
The
way it looks won’t catch your eyes
But
its nature is shining and tough
And
its value is quite plain to the wise
I like this post. A lot.
