Dane Ann Smith-Johnsen Poet Rhyme

Apology Accepted?

Apology Accepted?

Apology accepted,
It’s time to move ahead.
One hurt heart regretting
The words that were read
Love was extended.
Care, friend to a friend.
Contact now severed.
A soul is preserved.
Anger reflected, rejected.
Apology accepted.
Hatred? Not, ever.
Forgiveness forever.
Love is God’s gift.
His words are not myth.
Proceed.  Live life with 
Faith everlasting.
By trusting in God
And caution’s laud
Upon our earth
Learned wisdom applauds.
Glory and honor, 
Belong to God.

Apology accepted.

Andrea Dietrich March 17, 2010 at 1:19 PM Very nice, Dane Ann. Hey, I need to tell you something. That limerick was written over three years ago for another Brian, someone in another poetry club. It is so funny. It didn't even cross my mind when I posted it that people would be thinking I meant the poetrysoup Brian. I am such a schmuck!! LUv, andrea
