Skin Cannot Hide!

black skin,
...white skin,
.....red skin,
.......brown skin....

human beating hearts!
...red blood, needs and wants,
.....all breathing,

........the same air!

diverse souls,
...unified spirit!

coming from darkness
.....into the light,

wrapped in different packages,
....all by the same hand,

small pieces of the universe,
...crying out to be joined!

skin cannot hide God's reflection!
