Notes About The Poem

For contest sponsored by Miranda

Plum

Peace love understanding mercy
What words will your tongue be serving

P.L.U.M. a perfect acronym to be
For the fruit of the spirit is as tasty

Peace is sweet and serine of times
Love is not selfish it is delightful divine 

Understanding with an open heart mind
Mercy given by creator to man so kind 

Be like a plum both tart and sweet
Understanding peace love and mercy
