Analysis of The Spirit's The Same No Matter The Skin
Multicultural smiles dance black and white
imagery while galaxies of colour
swirl beauty's positive humanity,
and I gather delight's musical tones
with inner strength flapping wonderful truth,
the spirit's the same no matter the skin.
Peaceful hearts outweigh those of swaggered hate,
the world's doors are open with fine freedom,
generosity is exceptional -
happiness folds foreign tongues into pride
while honourable eyes blink soft patience,
personalities must breathe in love's trust.
