The Cover

If you just chew it
You don’t taste it
You don’t know me or my personality
But you hate it

Indeed, you can't judge a book by its cover! Some people are too quick to judge. Anything worthy of our judgement should be given the courtesy of our time and effort. If, after we've done that, we still don't like what we see, at least we can give reasons for our viewpoint. A clever little poem!

Thank you so, so much! Your review is so appreciated. (:

You don't know me because you haven't given the time to know me; you're not tasting me, touching me; all you see is my outer ring, my blur, my shadow, not the real me....you haven't even given me a chance...that's why you hate me; if you knew my soul, in time, your hate would would turn to gold....
Nice Cat!

This is such a good example of those who are so easy to judge someone all because of their outer appearance, not caring to know someone on a deeper level, which I've learned to see as them missing out and it being their loss if anything. Thank you for sharing! :)

I hate pre judging people types and then I stop myself and realise I’m pretty well much pre judging the pre judger who pre judged me in the first place !

You don't even really know me and yet you judge me to be bad?
First of all, who is anyone to judge another....and secondly...we need to really get to know
someone well before we make assertions about who they are.
Lots of room in this perfect short bit of writing.
