That which, from a distance,
Was just a narrow strip of color
Between two clouds
Becomes a glorious tapestry
When brought closer
Through the magic of a telephoto lens —
Just as a group of people, perhaps
A different race or nationality,
Might seem to become more human,
More appreciated, if we come closer;
Get to know them as individuals.
A cliche, I suppose, but how else
Can we encourage and inspire folks
To stop treating others
As somehow less than human?
