Wishes For My Enemies

I wish them peace
I wish them a long life
and the joy
I wish them no unhappieness

I wish them understanding
for my actions and theirs
I wish them knowledge

Later I wish them happieness
and contempent let
them find whatthey are looking for
may the find the worth in life
and bring life to others

Let them see the trught
and abandon their false ways
then one day bring them to my place
and wish the same

A generous poem, Ezra. Generosity toward your enemies is rare. You could class this as a list poem.
