Differences are ok

Different

by Lakeshia Richardson

Height isn't my best friend. 
I'm shorter than most people, but still taller than a few.
Not Weird, Just Different.
 
Skinny I am not.
I am thicker than most women, yet slimmer than some.
Not Weird, Just Different.
 
Omniscient no, Einstein I'm not even close.
However, I am knowledgeable about many things.
Not Weird, Just Different.
 
Mozart, no way, never written a symphony.
I would say I'm musically inclined because I can carry a melody.
Not Weird, Just Different.
 
I can go on and on with this list as far as the eye can see.
I may not be great in your eyes, but I am worthy.
And that's good enough for me.
 
I sometimes do things outside the norm.
Some people call me strange and at times weird too.
 
But, I'm not weird,........
 
I'm..........Just Different!!!!
