Don't Knock It!

Don't knock it!
If they play different games,
Or have different rules.
They play their way, you play yours,
Neither is better or worse than the other.

Don't knock it!
Even though you don't understand
The differences between you and them.
Each person plays differently,
No two the same.
But each person seems to think,
The other is out of bounds.

Most never seem to learn
Of the different tunes in life,
Some poets understand,
As do other's who love peace.

But many people don't understand,
That even closest friends and kin,
Sometimes hear above the din,
Another tune that's meant for them.
