Forgiveness

From crushed violets rise a sweet, gentle sigh,
Their scent teaches grace as they reach for the sky.
In the face of our pain, love’s essence remains,
Forgiveness blooms softly, washing away stains.

As the violets are crushed, their forgiveness is in the beautiful scent they release. Forgiveness blooms softly. This is a wonderful poem Jay.
