My friend Regina posted this on Facebook today. It touched my heart and I wanted to share it here.
Not Being Perfect
Regina Puckett
I can dance, play drums, run fast, write or sing
But the world will never know what I can bring
Because I stutter, I’m too short, tall, skinny, or fat
How could I show the inner me with any of that?
My outside covering hides the true beauty within
Because in this world not being perfect is a sin

He weaves himself in and out.
Robins and Catbirds
Shh, take a glimpse at their underwear when they’re bathing.
Robins wear white fluffy panties. Catbirds wear scarlet.
