Forgiving Hardships Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Forgiving Hardships



Saddened blueness filling interiorly, if not for my spirit
filled with energy, life would be a failure and unable to
be dealt with.

Absent from every day living, looking for possibilities that
will take me into depths of another horizon where I may find
amazing facts and data held within coded rhythms.

They never die or fade away, at times barely visible, but
never forgotten in this life, always forgiving hardships
we are given on our pathways here on this earth.

Finding that somehow we've had our hearts broken and taken
away by loss or misfortune, left alone and bereaved to find
our way alone.

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

This poem is the MOTHER LODE of poems about dealing with grief and loss. It doesn't solve the problem, which truly cannot be solved, only confronted and dealt with. But you are walking a path of grief, inevitable, unavoidable grief, with FAITH and COURAGE. What you are doing is lighting a beacon for those of us who will travel this path in the future. As I said, reluctantly, your grief cannot be assuaged because your loss is permanent, but by providing that beacon light to the rest of us, you transform grief into charity, your loss becomes an act of giving to others. And what could be a more Christian act of faith than that?
