Analysis of Polyvalence
Multifaceted people
display polyvalence.
They regard many values,
giving a reverence.
They unfold many layers,
drawing a confluence.
They embrace many cultures,
bidding a deference.
They respect many races
joining coalescence.
They admire many choices
aiding a concurrence.
They redeem many meanings,
choosing a preference.
They engage many colors
showing a convergence.
They accept many faces,
making a difference.
