Said My Poetic Intent

Said my intent.
I do not discriminate
by race, 
by sex 
or
by religion.
I merely write historic insightful facts,
depict of the human minds' moral 
and ethical behaviors.
Should I offend!
I pray God forgiveness.

G'day Al … I thought poetry was created from the artistic minds that some can write down, where others struggle. There is need for looking down the nose at others. We all end up the same way - thank you Al for your insight - Lindsay

Hi Al Juman, I really like the message you are trying to spread via your poem, yeah we all sre brothers, we all have come from the same origin, so we must love each other, learn to be tolerate and solely judge someone based on their attitude and character, not on their religion, colour, race or wealth, good luck

What God takes into consideration is not what we write but what our intentions are when we write! Do not worry then my friend for if your intentions are pure you do not need God's forgiveness for He has nothing to forgive you for!
