Notes About The Poem

The Gift of Forgiveness

Suddenly Released From Purgatory,

Restored To Life,

The Love Taken From His Youth

Returned To Him Now.

Is This What Forgiveness From God Was Like?

In The Midst Of His Aging, All Opportunities Missed,

All Youth And Vigor Lost,

This Gift, A Cruel Reminder,

Of All That Was Stolen

By Time.
