BEYOND ME
While trying to fit in
Hungry for acceptance by all and sundry
My skin got darkened
Now, I found love in an AppleTree
A visit to his chambers showed an exemplar
So, I cried, “I am dark.”
With care and affection, he said, “You are my Rose of Sharon.”
At that moment, I didn’t feel dark but elegant
For he looked beyond me.
