i loved this poem. it really touched my heart. i am a white american whom lives in idaho, there are some racial people here. My family is not racial or bias to anyone of another culture, i e-mailed this to my friends dad (who is racial) i actually do believe it changed his idea of equal rights

a very careing poem. Religious people today are twisting the scripture to condemn everyone who does not fit their mold. People are becoming more educated, and it's wonderful to see such a young child as yourself rally for the cause of righteousness. Stay pure and follow your Heart, listen to your concience and you'll be a great writer one day as well as a good person in the eyes of God.

Wonderful poem, with evocative phrases and so thoughtful. I think it is ageless! No one who reads it and has been hurt by discrimination will be untouched. No one also, would know the age of the poet. Hurray for this young woman. I hope she continues to write. She has the makings of a first class, award-winning poet.

I loved your poem!

Tiffany

There is no words for how good your poem was. I think that it is wrong for anyone to judge anyone person by the way they look, talk, or what religion they are. I think that you are veyr smart and if people went by the words in your poems there would so much peace in the world.

Danny

oh my gosh if more people see the world like this, i believe we would have less problems. this poem really touched me because i have to see and deal with racial discrimination on a daily basis.

keep up the good work

As a jewish person, I really loved your poem and really felt emotional. It's good to know that there are still some alive angels like you, Monica, that can walk in other people's mocassins and remind us the values forgotten or ignored. Yes, we are all the same. Thank you for your poem. Keep up writing your feelings, I'm sure you'll be a great poet!

Hi there!This the best poetry i have ever read on racial matter. I'm from India but whenever we indians are chatting with a european they seems to ignore us . whenever i'll entered any room ,i'll simply paste your poem in the chat room . Monica your poem is pretty good . It conveys the message that coloor is not the main issue we have to look into somebody . How he /she is at heart . Keep it up Monica . Best luck !

i like this poems because is so beautiful.

mystic_mallory

Your poem catches what is sad but oh so terribly true. I myself hate to see that color and religion divide people into categories that some say shouldn't be crossed or mixed. Like you said, God created all of us, and loves us equally. People should be able to do the same.

Vernita

This poem was very inspirational, far to often we judge others by the color of their skin, but truly deep down within our souls we all know we are all the same no matter the color in God! Monica Keep Up The Good Work-From The Mouth Of Babes.

A.S.

I like your poem.

nat

it is so true and she's only 13 which is great that she has this insight on racism. reality is harsh and she captured the right words for this poem. it is truly great.

Georgia

To All, If we in this world would only listen to the children this would be a better place. As God would say out of the mouth of babes the truth comes out.. I would like to thank Monica you have touched a place in my heart. keep going for you have a gift from GOD.

Diana
