Foe Forgiveness Joy
Written: December 24, 2023, For Anoucheka Gangabissoon Contest
_________________________________________
Forgiveness is felicity fetching a hefty feud.
It warms our hearts and improves our mood.
To live calmly on Earth, embrace forgiveness.
Dexterously Defrock dawn air; discover dearness.
As a fury furrow flees, I forgive you—feigned foe.
Sustain stance—yessing zeal, solemnize and glow
Forgive and allow your foe an alternative chance.
As he begs for pardon with his frail stance,
Scintillate the shiny strands of the sealed niche.
Paths of forgiveness reveal an intriguing switch.
With prayer, ember angels carry spots to paradise.
Requesting a thoughtful endeavor toward demise.
Hearse historically hab-dabs with the dead.
With dawn of fresh days, let's start a raw tread.
Continue treading amidst reduced leaf drift.
Flower sheaths peeking down when buds swift?
As seen from a prism of vanished years.
How innocuous the task and the tiara appear.
In times of harmony, past feuds were futile.
A vanishing scowl encircles the path scruple.
Furthermore, when anger or fury is at its peak,
There is a factor worse for the heart: to speak.
Being loved is all that matters in this world.
Pray for peace, ease the burden of an iron sword.
Same plight—yelling, oral, mental, and emotive.
Septic sequels stir kids to feel fearful and erosive.
Reducing their physical and mental resilience.
Subverting their intended infancy and innocence.
Flowers have brighter petals and fragrance.
Though previously absent—sky in its radiance.
Defying gravity tug feels absurd, yet it's true.
Now each stride is airy, and there is no foe.
Forgiveness has a way of lifting gloomy moods.
It truly restores vigor and removes toxic feuds.
