If we could, would we want to choose
The blessing of our birth,
Then, would we have the wisdom for selecting
Our origins on earth. 

Oh, but after, such choice we all most surely have,
How of heart and soul we give,
The many choices we can make
In how we daily seek to live.

I can surely see, how you have blossomed so
In rich beauty of the heart,
Creating all the special wonder
To me your love imparts.

I like to see your beauteous color,
You, in a completing sort of way,
Because that's the reality we are
The ultra special way we're made.

Our color's our dimension, yours and mine
The ever present who we are,
The make-up of our being
The splendid wrapping of our heart.

I never look past you, as you can never I,
As if diverse does not exist,
The wonder, the glory of your being
As one that brings me kindness, peace.

There is a great pleasure in our difference
Added thrill, the way we're made,
I like you splendidly, because you're you
And love you more each day.

If you were all the same, as I
What glorious rainbow would be then,
How would we know psychedelic color
Except as multi-spectrum friends.

I celebrate God's magnificent palette
And are so glad for me He found,
My sublime friend with such character
I just wouldn't be without.
