You Shall Be Different

you shall be different
from the rest whose business is it
is to destroy

you shall create
some wonders
you shall be beautiful
you shall plant the seeds of flowers
you shall make the songs of the world
you shall make the poems that will make us ponder

you shall dwell on the light
you shall propagate the silence of peace
you shall make the bridges of distances
you shall be the mediator of their conflicts

you shall smile amidst all the adversities
you shall have no doubts

you are the beloved child of God.
