In Merciful Hearts

In merciful hearts kindness flows like sweet scents in gardens Compassionate gates never close to those who seek pardons Everyone makes mistakes Causing grief and heartaches But kindness heals the breaks Benevolence starts In merciful hearts January 27, 2022 Quietus (Jan 2022 edition) Contest Sponsored by Unseeking Seeker
