Day 16: 16th April, 16th poem
Brokenhearted
I will take my heart - broken,
Broken in jagged pieces,
Pieces that cut me away.
I will take my broken heart,
Melt and mix with,
Forgiveness and mercy
Add a little salt
Of the Spirit .
Till bitterness and hatred
Is no more.
With courage,
I'll mold a new heart,
A new heart - full of
Love and kindness
And peace.
And peace...
Welcome to my blog. Grams is the name my first grandson gave me and it's stuck. My great loves: My husband, our nine children, twenty five grandchildren, four great grandchildren, my Faith, writing- prose and poetry - and travelling , especially in our camper. My posts are eclectic and I appreciate getting comments. So, please feel free to comment or offer advice on what you would like to to see more of.
Marian, I like how you evoke profound feeling from simple words. Excellent. Thanks for visiting and commenting on my magnetic poem. I like how the magnets force me to focus on the look, sound and meaning of the words, rather than a preconceived idea -- although in this case, I knew I wanted to address the fridge.
ReplyDeleteI love your name. It's the name of my elder daughter, an unusual one for a 23-year-old! She's an independent thinker and seems to like her name.
Thanks Van Waffle. Your comments are much appreciated.
