Today Is

Today is
Not a day
To be spent
Hating
Your sisters
And brothers
In this world
But rather
A day to
Forgive

The wrong
You have
Endured

And teach
That love

And peace
Can ultimately
Conquer
Anything
That tolerance

Should be
Encouraged
By all
And looked down
Upon by none
And it is a day
To remember
That acceptance
Of others
Differences
Can lead to
Learning things

You never knew
That will in
The end
Help you grow
In ways
You can't
Even begin
Right now to know
So today
I beg you
Remember these words
Tolerate and appreciate
Never hate
And at the end
Of the day
Make sure you
Learned something
After all
That is why
We are here
To being with
To never
Ever stop learning
