Forgiveness (Haiku) : A Message For Peace
Don’t cause any pain
Free all those you rule or reign
Life is yours to gain
Give back some you take
Greed’s ambiguous mistake
Stain a heart with hate
Faces take much form
Good cheer and smiles do warm
Take back those which harm
Care is made with love
Rewarded you from above
Peace to make world of
All those gone astray
Will return to love one day
When fear goes away
Free all those you rule or reign
Life is yours to gain
Give back some you take
Greed’s ambiguous mistake
Stain a heart with hate
Faces take much form
Good cheer and smiles do warm
Take back those which harm
Care is made with love
Rewarded you from above
Peace to make world of
All those gone astray
Will return to love one day
When fear goes away
