Wishing enemies well

Day and night we toiled but some aims were foiled by souls who opposed us, thwarting our goal but we wished all well, since our heart’s unsoiled and detractors merely play their life role. Made in His image, we are living light, yet on earth we burn, since we’re here to learn, so be it boon or blight, it is alright, for when we forgive, God’s grace we so earn. Reptiles in human form create a storm but in timeless time, they will heed love’s chime, so we send them pulsations of joy warm, that divine entwined, they heavenward climb. Seeds of love sowed, repays our soul’s debts owed, thus breath by breath bliss in heart is endowed.

Yes, forgiveness is for us, for self-healing. Therefore acceptance of all, as they are is preferable since then we feel no sense of injury, obviating need to forgive.
