nicely done... i like the message especially, the use of repetion works well here but normally I don't care for repeating lines unless it makes sense to do so... this works.

I enjoyed reading your poem. It's deep and meaningful. I believe what you said, "By not forgiving, we alone carry the biggest burden." We all should realize, it's not a perfect world. We're bound to get hurt, and forgiveness should not be optional if we want to stay happy.

Excellent point! - that we are going to get hurt and forgiveness should not be an option! Wow! That's another angle that hits home. Thank you for this very kind review. Am glad you enjoyed it. With regards, Sue

Comment from Eternal Muse
Thank you for this memorable write on forgiveness. You bring out a very important thought of how forgiveness frees and mind and soul. By holding the grudge we are only hurting ourselves. Often, forgiving frees us to leave our lives unencumbered by grief, hard feelings and hate. Loved these:
Holding grudge, we're scarred and beset
With more wounds, we add to those wrongs
As the heart, the heart always longs
To lay down those weapons that threat
Excellent entry into the contest, thank you very much for sharing your thoughts with us. God bless.

I love the sound of this created by the repetition - and the tone is so in keeping with the theme of forgiveness. The heart always longs to forgive/to lay down those weapons that threat - letting go, we're free to forget - you really capture the spirit of allowing the soul to be at peace when one truly allows hurts to fade into the background

Comment from Kingsland
I liked the poem but not the repetition
it's like you're stuttering in the piece
heart then followed by the word heart once again
This detracts from the over all quality of the piece for me
I think you have a good start to something that could be much better... John

Comment from kassey
You are so right about not being able to move on without giving forgiveness.
"Holding grudge, we're scarred and beset
With more wounds, we add to those wrongs"
"Forgiveness, the key - no regret.'
Many people could benefit from reading your words and wothy of a sixer.

AHHH! Didn't see the six until I got to your last line! What a great surprise.
Thank you SO much for saying others could benefit. I had to come to my own realization of a few things as I wrote it. Timing for me: Perfect!
I'm now finding the multi-faceted, multi-layered beauty of poetry after all these years of my life. And the reading of other's works sometimes just astounds the heart. And to write and hear feedback that others get from my words is a wonderful feeling. It's a sharing I had not yet experienced. Thankfully, it is never too late in life for anything.
Thank you for this gift; the highest rating and your lovely words.
With warmest regards,
Sue
