very nice, but they missed the Scots out of that poem; when we are born, we pink. When we grow up we sort of pale blue. When we go in sun we go white...then bright red.

Thanks for the poem!!

Really great!!

That was great, thanks for that.

May, I'm not going to question if it's really a good poem are not. To each one his own. But I fear it's a little bit of an hoax or chain mail going around for years now.

I doubt the UN is going to nominate poems, as its task is completely different. At the UN-site ther's no proof of that kind of activaty.

wow great!!!

the best

THAIBEL* It might be a chain letter or whatever. It doesnt matter if there was such an activity going on thru UN or not. I'm sorry if there wasnt but the point of sharing this poem is to show how one kid feels thru racism. Like I said, my friend posted it on his wall, and I have never seen it until now. The pictures posted here are just those I found online to support this poem. Thats all.

funny

It's been posted here before as a journal, more than once, and the author may or may not have been an african child.

But it's been around longer than 2 years.
