I Forgive Poem by Biniam Tekeste

I Forgive

Rating: 5.0


When you hurl your words,
Scorching as blazing arrows,
They do bruise my heart
But, I thank God, my healing is instant.

My secret:
I tarry not to forgive,
I don't wait for the Sun to sink,
Nor do I advocate tit-for- tat,
I have trained myself to shun grudge,
And to also let God be God.
I trust He avenges me just right,
So, I forgive and set myself free.

A fine and lofty verse with an inspirational fragrance. Indeed, forgiveness is by far more rewarding than vengeance or bearing grudges with malice. It is an attribute of the strong and not the weak.
