POETBAY IS FILLED WITH THE WORLD


TO ALL OF POETBAY

No matter where you come from, the pride within you is stronger than any force within you.
Love is the only force of feeling in your heart that exceeds this one feeling of pride.
Be proud of where you come from. Race is not a factor in love, success, and making it to the top.
Be proud of pride of within you. Deep down, fears hide to show yourself up in public.
Sing of who you are,
I'm a Mexican.
Tough as roots can withstand, I stand strong.
Firm and loving for all people that show love to me.
I'm on my way to the top. No branch can hold me back. No branch can lay low to trip me over.
My hands are strong to hold me up from falling. My legs stand like a tree, roots holding it up.
What now is holding me is that love. Love can't let me fall. I believe in its pride.
Like I believe in my pride for my race. Stand up and yell out who you are.
And scream out that all of us are the same. Change your frown to a smile knowing that no one treats you different.

Great writing! I love the analogy of climbing the tree. keep climbing and when you get to the top hold on to those very top branches and swaaaaaaaay! The freedom of the heights and the movement in the top of the tree is awesome! :) kathy
