Dear Bully: A Collection of Poems about Bullying
by Joyce Fields
Dear Bully:
It does not make you look big
To make others feel so small.
We’re all important on God’s green earth.
Lift me up; don’t make me fall.
I’m worthy of life; I’m worthy of love.
I’m worthy of all that is good.
Make yourself worthy, too, Dear Bully.
Treat others the way that you should.
Dear Bully:
The way that I look is God’s gift to me.
It’s nothing for you to make fun of.
We should value others as humans, you see.
Of which we are all one of.
The way that you look is God’s gift to you.
I would never tease you about it.
It’s what’s INSIDE us that really counts.
And we should never doubt it.
Dear Bully:
Bullies are people who think it’s okay
To hurt other people and get in their way.
If given some thought
And feeling their pain,
Bullies would never be bullies again.
