MY PUP MAX

McGoo takes a crack at penmanship in my first-grade
classroom!
Acceptance
Does not warp
or shape
Or wrench a
person
To be anything
other
Than what they
are.
It simply
opens its arms
To
the weary,
Opens its
heart to her
The broken,
And opens its
mind
To see the
invisible.
Then, in the
shelter
Of acceptance,
A person can
be free
To be even
something more.
