Two
White Ponies
There once
were two white ponies
And they
would often hear
About how
much they looked alike
From others
far and near
They thought
that this was silly
And they
would often say
"How can
you say we are like?
We're just
like night and day!"
For even
though they seemed the same
They did
not feel that way
For one had
longer ears and tail
And loved
to dance and play
The other
one was quieter
And she was
taller, too
Her eyes
were larger than her twin's
And they're
a deeper blue
One day they
said, "Why should we care
What other
people feel?
We know,
tho they think we're alike
Our differences
are real!"
They carried
on this simple thought
And soon
others would see
Even though
they seemed alike
How different
they could be
And now the
two white ponies
Are happy
for each other
They know
that it's OK to be
One different
from another
