The Art of Change

How a daisy becomes a rose
Is a question of impose
The constant of familiars wear
And maturity of the share

The give and take the wait and see
The filling of the argosy
The feeding of forgiveness food
Dispelling of the brood and mood

To brake the soil with patience rake
For some this pill is hard to take
Even tyrants turn in time
And ask forgiveness for their crime

We all must taste the bitter wed
It is the substance of the bread
It is the pathway to our goal
It is the substance of our soul

Without this love and Gods believe
What good could come of Gods conceive?

Lessons and more lessons, likes bits and pieces of a puzzle, we ponder and sometimes lose patience trying to fit the pieces together.  Scatter the pieces, loose a few, and rue our own inadequacies envisioning the bigger picture.  The truth is, we are the ones who chose to use a jig saw!    It always helps me to view the designer's concept.

You are making me think!

In total agreement, Sy.....for-giveness is one of the most important actions humans are capable of doing; not nearly addressed enough in poetry, either.  Glad you did.  Enjoyed this.  *hugs*...jo
