Ode To A Repentant Heart Poem by Doris Cornago
Ode To A Repentant Heart
Life without shadows, what is a meadow
Without sorrow, what's it to have joy
Sticking close, won't know separation
Can't know the ordeal of having friction
Watching cupped leaves supplicating
Made me aware of my burdened aching
Grace as rain races down muddy beams
Repentant heart is washed sparkling
Eyes wet with tears, bright as green
Glistening raindrops no longer seen
Make me know that storm has cleared
Onward flows life renewed leaves laid

The leaves in supplication in the rain showed the poet the right attitude - don't struggle against the deluge, but instead, welcome it. If we look at the same rain in our lives as a freshening of perspectives and relationships, we can also lay out new leaves, forgive the hurt and move on to a stronger relationship.
