We meet

We make amends
To share this ancient

forbearance key to make amends

A victim of the Holocaust
Laments so many lives were lost
Their Christian friends
Can't make amends
Although they all have double-crossed

Like the tide, my pain comes and goes;
but, in the end, the pain just mends.

Like the tide, the hurt ebbs and flows;
but, in the mend, my hurt amends.

Premium Member Jock In the Sock

There once was a dim witted tight end
For his rump he would make no amends
But into his jock
Well, he stuffed a sock
Why he’d do that I can’t comprehend?

With Each Day

With each day 
Fresh and new 
We start over again 
And try to make amends 
As time goes on 
We open our minds 
Continue to drive for success 
And stay truly blessed

Too Late

To make amends,
to soothe hurts with a vow,
the most opportune time,
my friend, is now.

Postponing kindness,
we hesitantly  wait.
Tomorrow, as always
comes too late.

Amendment

Fighting his very nature,
disagreeing with himself again

Feelings demand what thoughts now command
—leaving verse to make amends

Cat and mouse Tom and Jerry
forever chasing through the library
they’re really true blue best of friends 
though both refuse to make amends

Premium Member Promise

I’m not into movements, 
I’m not into trends. 
I’m not into living my
Life for amends. 

All that concerns me
Is being with you, 
This much I promise, 
I’ll make come true.

take the dream
                away
make amends
          forgive
yet
    not forget
               love
blossoms
never ambition

then
   begin again
sans
   the anguish

Redemption Finding Your Way

Redemption, finding your way
Asking for forgiveness 
Finding your way
Making amends, thus
Saying, that I am sorry
Finding your way
Falling in love, again,
On this cold winter day

I Never Finish Anyth

Always let it fall to pieces,
pick them up again.
A wish to rest your weary head,
forget about the end.
Never finish anything,
just begin again.
Always up and down and changed
& never make amends

Ghost Writers

Letting the page breathe,
my pen in its well
The letters enchanted,
recasting their spell
Beginning then ending,
beginning again
Rewriting the master
—their magic amends

Have a penchant for the old foot-in-mouth disease Been afflicted since us guys came down from the trees Never learned I guess It causes much stress Trying to make amends with words to appease

Alone In Paris

New lights,
quick tongue,
love in the hall of kings,
the eye warms with wonder
at so many things, 
yet I'm carried still, to home,
and thoughts flee to friends,
travel distracts a troubled mind,
but does not make amends.

The Courage To Write

A poem to fill the book’s blank page,
A poem to make friends
A poem to soothe my fuming rage
A poem to make amends
It takes courage to write authentically
because no sane person chooses to bleed his thoughts on papers.

Premium Member Memento Mori

One day, someday, man will awake.
He will find the time of his mistake.
He will turn and cry at his defeat.
On how he’s made this world so bleak.
Yes, he will cry & try to make amends.
Yet what’s done is done & tis the end.

Memories

        Dwells in heart of mankind 
	Worst of them,
	Enemy of a man
	Best of them,
	Friend of all
	Tells us we once lived a life,
	Loved a soul,
	Did the inevitable,
	Left for us to make amends
	Or let the mistake make ruins.
