Tolerance
By Linda C. Burian
Linda is currently completing a Master’s Degree in Elementary Education with a certification in Middle School Science. She and her family live in Seymour, CT and are members of the First Presbyterian Church of New Haven, CT.

Remember this:
They all laugh just
Like you
Their tears are like
Your own.
And their sky is blue
Their sun
The very one you love.
And even though
Their God is different
And their speech
Is not like yours.
They love and fear
Are born and die
Like you do.
If they weren’t here
To share this earth
There would be no you
To share it too.
