Last Commented Forgiveness Poems (316)

hold me like the moon
go round and round the sky
all the broken things inside me
are going to learn to fly

rivers of the souls they fly
notes in song passing by
golden threads of time
marking stitches in a rhyme
weave which we believe
without the boundaries we conceive

hold me like the moon
gone round and round the sun

I think of the Aborigine's last plight
To tell of the Rainbow Serpent* in its might
Wherein the ancient dream time lies your soul
And the strength of ancient myth becomes your all.

For my young country Australia -
I tell of my dismay and love for her
I sing my all and in my praise for you
Hear the ancient haunting rhythm of didgeridoo.

Generations old and lost in time
Rock paintings in the Kimberley sublime
Dot paintings are the desert's oldest art
The living Dreamtime spirit at its heart.

One day they'll be when black and white unite
To recognize the black man in his fight
To seek the white man's peace in destiny
We must first make peace with the Aborigine.

To put the Constitution right now in its laws
To love the black man instead of to abhor
And to the Stolen Generation, a treaty give
Will make our country stronger - live and let live.

To lift the black man up with helping hand
Like Gough Whitlam ** unto you did pour his sand***
From white to black we still have far to go
From black to white forgiveness we must know.

Seeking truth
Leaving pain
So I will not
Go insane

Let me find
Life's true goal
So I may rest
My weary soul

God has shown
Me a way
Now give me strenght
So I won't stray

From his plan
For he knows
When he talks
My faith grows

So I grow
Oh my Lord
In my faith
And cut the cord

From my sin
God I am sure
With your help
I'll be pure

A part of life we all must do, the one thing that will stay true. It hurts loved ones and makes them blue; but as we live, cannot undo! It makes complete the life we chose; yet gives us hope we should not lose. The joy we share and sorrow we see; gives note to all that this must be. We no not when this will take place; so live life at our own pace! Indeed, we know that this is true; we live our lives—but must die too! I cannot explain why this must be; yet see that death does set us free. I give a gift in this belief, and write these words to ease your grief. I’m sorry that I must complete; that part of life we cannot beat. All my love; to all that’s dear—within your heart I will be near!

doesn't it seem plentiful
finding reasons
of being thankful
and all the trials
chaos and pain
are but my tools
to make me strong
resilient and able

so you left earlier
than I would have thought
but that is alright
I figured,
it was destined and meant
that I'd be in better hands
as, you would, too
if we parted sooner
than you and I anticipated

for somewhere, someone
out there
was achingly waiting
longing, for the both of us
to be apart and that....
is the reality of life

I just want you to know
I'm grateful and thankful for
the opportunity of knowing you
and partook in your love

and that love will live forever in my heart
whether you're with me physically or not
because
I will always love you.

as I've always had
when I said
the first time I let you
in my life, almost three years ago.

my heart, body and soul
will always belong to you
they never left you.

Riding through
tail winds
whipping my feet

rains no matter
blinding my eyes

hair stinging my back
but
I
rode on

no sense of cold
just
moving forward
Sunrise
beckons

away
a halt
to see

deep sadness
creeping
release

I am not far

stringing streams
winding minds

moving future

caressing past
spitting out

the last

I was 19 and in the prime of my young life
I was lookin4 you one day to be my wife
You were a Sth Efrican spunkybum
And sure i was liked by your mum

We worked together then moved in together
We thought that we were in love
I was only 19

I played football with the men
And hung out with mates back then
I gave that up to be with you
Coz remember that day
When you said .. i love you

Anyway .. to cut a long poem short...


We woke up one morning
You said you were crook
I felt like sh*t coz not by your look

I felt so bad that you were sad
So i went off to work
To earn some money so both to be glad

All day at work i thought of you
And all i could think of was you
I called you on the phone during the day
You answerd and said gidday

I asked if you were ok
You said i'm fine and enjoy your day
I was sad that you were crook
And could'nt wait to get home for a look

The siren for knock off time went
I was only 19
But was the longest day of my life

Anyway

I jumped into my car
And could'nt wait to see you
I stopped off and bought you some flowers
Coz since i saw you last
It was hours

Anyway yada yada yada ...

When i drove up to our place
Your dad was out front with a mean face
There was a small truck with in it your belongings
And i thought WTF???

As he was bigger than me
He would'nt let me near thee
Until this day 20/6/16
I still don't know why and now i'm 53


ps, i'm so sorry ... i was only 19

Excuses, Excuses will not do!
We have a duty in life to love, that is what is true
To forgive means to do so with all our heart
Not to place the blame on God for what we did start
What we sow is what we reap
Each commandment was written to keep
Always think twice, never leap
Justice will come to those who are good
Welcome to life just imitate Robin Hood
Give to the poor, forget your greed
Don't be lazy, hasten your speed
Remember adultery is a mortal sin
So is killing, that's plain grim
As for stealing what kind of a person does that?
Normally a lowlife or a spoilt brat
To hell with being envious, that is not the way
You'll have more riches if you favour God and pray
Study and work and you will succeed
Be the best of the breed
Love your neighbour even if they're not your type
Your graces on earth will treble minus the hype
Thank God for every new day
When you're angry, Don't insult His name, that's lame
Remember Sunday? Go say Hello
It's one hour of the entire day, make an effort to go
We've all been bitten one way or another
At times from within our own family or from another
People will fill your head with lies
They're not good but they swarm around you in life like flies
Don't listen to what these other people say
They don't want you to obey
Never forget your parents, without them you wouldn't be here
Give them a good life, fill it with cheer
A good heart is what makes man
All Sins are forgiven if you repent, that's the best part of God's plan!

Today

I must have balled my eyes out
On my knees curled up what seemed to me
In the form of a fetus
Praying to the Almighty God
Amen Ra for forgiveness

Oh...did I call out His name loud!
Loud to myself so that I didn’t wake up my family
Damn shame that I...haven’t any shame in my............Game
To let -you - in-on- my- secrete
Watch this though
Many souls have the same secrete
But I’m the only knucklehead that’s unable to keep it...to myself

Today I cried out to God
To make me a better man
As well as a better servant
A better Baba (father) to my children
A better brother to my brother’s and sister’s of the earth!

Today I cried soooo hard til my soul could release
Release all the pain and all the hurt
I must have cried so much that I could see within
My clear teardrops that wouldn’t stop past ills and past dirt
So many tears I shed...tissue was no longer my friend
That’s when I reached out for an old beat up t-shirt

To wipe off my face and blow my nose
To get rid of all of that liquid
I cried so hard like a kid remembering
How he once had to go out and get a switch to whoop

His own butt with...yes... I ...did...call out to Him...(God)
To change my life and make me better.....faster....to get closer
To him..........stronger....cause I’m no longer able to do it by myself
I’m still a piece of work in progress and learning life lessons
Today...is...my... confession...
Today...I
Today I cried so hard....
Today
