Forgive and Kindness You Give

If a person has cheated us
It is better we do not curse
God will take the best action
Giving to us fine protection

Let us not feel terribly sorry
And bring to our mind injury
Instead let us try to forget
So that bliss we can get

Of course scars are severe
And memories cause tear
Still, let us somehow manage
And try to get enough courage

That person has badly blundered
A heinous act is cruelly rendered
God will make the needed move
Power of Justice, He will prove

Our tears have flooded heaven
Our stomachs burn like oven
Revenge is not our ultimate aim
Though we had a very bad time

The worst losses we suffered
But, pure kindness we offered
We came across great traitors
But, we are really lawful fighters

Let us keep our mind steady
And offer to all kind remedy
Let us fill our heart with mercy
Being kind must be our policy

By pure love, we are urged
Strongly we have emerged
Let us forget all their fault
Let love occupy heart-vault

Kindness is the best defense
It only proves God's presence
Kindness will pave a safe path
Let it replace meaningless wrath.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Words that have come from a great heart. Even if others hurt us, we shouldn't curse them, but forgive. When we forgive, God will give us ample reward. "Let us fill our heart with mercy Being kind must be our policy. " Lovely thoughts dear friend. May God bless you!
