Holly Moore Poet Nonet

Bag of Sins

This bag of sins you left are not mine
When you died they were at my door
I put them around my neck
Red shoulders, heavy heart
Your pain became mine
Time to let go
Lose your sins
Gain my
Life.

Lucilla Carrillo February 3, 2013 at 2:01 PM Holly; this is a very good poem. A bag of sins. I hate sins. I once had 2 bags full, but I got rid of them - they were getting too heavy. Thanks for sharing. Once you ask when my husband had passed. He passed in 11/25/2009. Have a nice day. Lucilla
