BOND, by MARIE M. MOTT First Line: When fellow-creatures thoughtlessly inflame you Last Line: And know they like you just the way you are! Subject(s): Brotherhood | |||
When fellow-creatures thoughtlessly inflame you By ridiculing things you hold most dear -- And for the discord give you all the blame, you Conclude you must be "Just a little queer;" When "something of a freak" they choose to brand you, How like the twinkling of a friendly star, To meet the smiles of those who understand you, And know they like you just the way you are! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE RESTAURANT by DAVID IGNATOW BROTHERHOOD by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON INEVITABLY (2) by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON INTERRACIAL by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON SPEECH TO THOSE WHO SAY COMRADE by ARCHIBALD MACLEISH BROTHERHOOD (2) by EDWIN MARKHAM |
