I Told You That Beauty, Beauty Poem by Hebert Logerie

I told you that beauty is imagined
A human being
Is a masterpiece in progress
I told you with wit, ingenuity and grace
That there is only one race
And don't be distressed
With the idea that you're less
Or more than anybody
You're maybe from a different country
From a different culture
But your essence and nature
Remain the same
Money, power and fame
Do not really change the formula
Texture or color does not matter
Look or perception does not matter
No human can alter the chemistry or the aura
Deep beyond the cover or the skin
We are all naked like a peeled banana
The insignificant difference cannot be seen
From a distance. We have experience
Different things. We are like science
All flowers are colorful and beautiful
All human beings can be wonderful
The itinerary is similar
And the destiny is in the air.
