Imperfection

Embrace Who We Are, As We Are.

Trees grow in odd shapes,

The ground isn't always straight,

Fences can be rough and worn,

Your shoes won't always last in a storm,

People can be small or tall,

Faces can have warts and all,

Figures can be curvy or slim,

Noses can be buttoned or pointy;

It doesn't matter who we are,

There are no permanent straight roads,

Or lines we walk,

And no figure or face is without flaws,

But love can see past them all,

Everything has imperfections,

Whether human, animal, or plant life,

But, those imperfections don't make us ugly,

or wrong,

It's time to embrace them;

Embrace who we are, as we are.
