Wilma, this is an amazing piece you've got. The three lines carry enough weight on their own. The 'lone Star' was a sign for the Wise Men, to guide them to the location of the King of Kings and the Saviour of the World- Jesus, when He was born. His coming to earth has brought Joy and Hope to a gloomy world. He is love and mercy personified. Do you know how powerful this Haiku piece is?? Am I right in thinking that this poem won a competition?

Any man who forgiveness has failed to govern, is a sadist. great way to convince the hard minded man.

Dear Wilma.A very illuminating Haiku.And you cannot have mercy without love.We can shine here on earth by projecting these truths in our lives.I love your title,just those three words have captured me.They speak volumes as does the rest of this profound piece.I am so glad you liked my 'One for All'I am so grateful I was able to share it with you.Thank you so much.Love June (S)
