Is a birthmark a good or a bad thing and what does our opinion on it say about us as people?,C/C pls. Thnks?
BIRTHmark
A birthmark can be dark or light
But can't be seen in dark of night
They wait to make their mark by day
To make us wish they'd go away
So we could be like all the rest
The perfect shoe, the perfect dress
The perfect lock, the perfect key
The perfect you the perfect me
These marks remind us all of birth
Detail our death define our worth
Is it not we inside, who choose
To make that mark outside a bruise?
The evil in the heart's the flaw
That taints the beauty that God saw
When he created man on earth
And passed among us marks of birth

A person with 6 birthmarks, 2 of them on their face asked that a poem be written for them. And it was hard for me to put myself in their place. I have a faded one on my side. I tried my best to understand it all, and this was the poem-------william
Yes LC, that's pretty much the way I see it.
CW, I used to work in a carryout, and I knew a girl that came in that had a wine stain that covered her entire face, and everyday she had to have spent hours caking on makeup to totally cover it up. You could tell her facial features were very attractive.
I always felt funny when she came in because I knew she knew people would look at her oddly. I later realized why I felt funny was a flaw in my character, not in her face. Live and learn I guess

Birth marks us by our skin;
choices mark us from within.
I like this poem a lot.

The port wine stain can be especially cruel.
Not a big fan of large tattoos, either.
Cool poem.
