A Bridge Called Forgiveness

 
"As we be, so we are. As we are, so we become. We be, to become." Quote by _Unseeking Seeker
________________________ Forgiving is just letting go, of feelings and thoughts and the hurt; and resentment_ so you can grow ! It dwells, swirls and twirls in your heart, forgive them and make pain depart ! It will take a process and time, as from your revenge you must climb ! Forgiveness is not a pardon, but, it will make your life sublime; and your own soul will not harden ! Connect with your spirit and find great peace, be water yielding as it softly flows; and make forgiveness your life centerpiece ! Live a Taos life and see how your life slows; don't build walls but tall bridges from all woes ! Be kind, instead of always right, embrace harmony in your life; send to the world peace, love and light ! Be kind instead of always right, let go and live in the sunlight. Time to remove that bitter knife ! Be kind, instead of always right, embrace harmony in your life ! "Forgiveness is the fragrance that the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it."

Wonderful spoken, Constance. Love the combination of different poetic styles and your line - "forgiveness is not pardon." That will stay with me for a long time! Congratulations on your win. Blessings!

Sam, thank you for the comment, compliment and congratulations, yes that line is important to hold onto to for just because we forgive does not mean the act that hurt us is okay, love _Constance

Constance, how you express yourself is what makes your poetry unique and qualifies it as art. Your feelings come through strong and straight from the heart where most good writing is born. You paint a picture with words and you make us feel them...this is hard to accomplish, and you do it so well, Emile.
