I have a favor to ask you. I am entering into the America Library of Poetry national contest. I need help deciding which poem to submit. Please let me know which one you think I should submit. I love you all and thank you for your help. These are the poems I'm thinking of:
Who is the Real You?
Labels are stuck
On each one of us.
They discriminate.
Alienate.
Separate.
Jock.
Nerd.
Disabled.
Rich.
Poor.
What are the labels
That matter?
Labels that build up,
Bring people together.
Christian.
Poet.
Student.
Friend.
Volunteer.
Put assumptions aside.
Get to know a person
For it's surprising what you might find.
Fallen Tree
Fallen tree
Once so beautiful,
Lay on the ground
For no one to see.
Fallen tree
Once stood tall,
Lay in the shadow
Still a mystery.
Fallen tree
Once loved so,
Still gives off
A hidden glow.
