YOU ARE NOT THAT a poem from the archives by (me!) sandra, tvgp
originally written/posted, nov 25th, 2008YOU ARE NOT THAT
you are not your pretty face
you are not your scars
y0u are not the house you keep
you are not your car
you are not your business card
your illness or your health
you are a cherished child of God
ever green, beloved.
you are not what others think
based on current trends
you are loved, day in, day out
on purpose, without end
if they stuck you in a mud pit
or covered you in jewels
or plopped you in a foreign land
without any foreign tools
if they placed you on a pedestal
then kicked you off for fun
none of this
is who you are
in the eyes of God.
you are not your ignorance
and you are not your knowledge
you are a cherished child of God
ever green, beloved.
~sandra, tvgp
