Mockery

Your mockery does not tarnish me

Your intolerance does not diminish me

Your anger does not frighten me

Your ignorance does not smother me

Because I can turn my face to the sun

And let Divine light fill up my soul

I can dance through the ocean waves

And let the saltwater cleanse my spirit

I can stand in the dirt

And let my roots sink deep into

The earth tethering me and

Making me strong as the forest

Your mockery cannot tarnish me

Your intolerance cannot diminish me

Your anger cannot frighten me

Your ignorance cannot smother me

I am confident in my oneness with God

And the greatness of the living waters that fill my being

I am strong and profound in my faith

And am grateful for the calming peace it brings me

I am trusting of God’s love

And the steadfast strength it gives me

So your mockery will not tarnish me

Your intolerance will not diminish me

Your anger will not frighten me

Your ignorance will not smother me

Because I am strong, and I am loved

I am blessed

Your mockery will never tarnish me
