buttons

people are like buttons,
we come in all kinds of shapes and sizes,
patterns and designs,
colours and texture.

we think differently,
but may have common views,
we have our own likes of ice cream flavours
or share the same dislikes for war.
i like my apples peeled,
but u like yours cored,
she likes her summer,
but he lives for winter.

we may be different but still alike,
nonetheless,
we are still buttons.
of all shapes and sizes,
living in the same box,
printed on the same canvas.
