Sort of like a whisper, tender Causing the nature’s surrender. Forgiveness, shy as a prayer, Blessings so wise, make souls aware. Soft like the dewdrop’s glistening Promising dawn is listening, Singing joy that’s beyond compare, Blessings so wise, make souls aware. Trembling on the edge of shadows, Mercy, a generous heart knows, Beautiful that will not despair, Blessings so wise, make souls aware. Wonders so graceful and stirring, When forgiveness is occurring, Hearts and souls, our hope will prepare, Blessings so wise, make souls aware. Breathless stars embrace the dark night, Leaving the moments blazing bright, There’s no stronger love anywhere, Blessings so wise, make souls aware. When hearts forgive, there’s a stillness, Compassion that cures each illness, Understanding will surely care, Blessings so wise, make souls aware. Forgive your neighbor and believe, Love this sincere will never grieve, Abide in light, with love to spare, Blessings so wise, make souls aware. Though you don’t expect this grace, Forgiving souls meet fear, face-to-face, And, though there may be quite a scare, Blessings so wise, make souls aware.

I continue to be in awe of your poetic writing skill. I liked the repetition of 'blessings so wise, make souls aware. Using a type of refrain was brilliant. You've touched on many aspects of forgiveness and the blessings and power it beholds. You must surely be a forgiving and compassionate soul. Am faving this one...best wishes with the contest, hugs, Sara

Forgiveness is something so beautiful and necessary for healing and moving on and I absolutely love the way you’ve written about this subject in such an ethereal manner especially “ When hearts forgive, there’s a stillness, Compassion that cures each illness,” soulful and meaningful. Pleasure always reading your work. Sending you light. Best wishes for the contest
