'help us to love all people like we love trees'


My dad always told me
To love people like I love trees.
Some are straight, tall,
Gnarled, bent, twisted, small,
But each contributes
To the beauty of their scene.
Every person, large or lean,
Is unique, extraordinary,
nothing special, just a tree;
an irreplaceable beauty.
