Whilst Some With Their Grudges Poem by Francis Duggan

Some people crimes against them are able to forgive
Whilst others all of their lives with their grudges do live
And hatred like a cancer in the mind it does grow
And quenches the bright light of the inner glow
Those who have compassion too have empathy
And even for those who sin against them can feel sympathy
I do envy them for their goodness of mind
Some people in their ways are so very kind
We all are quite different one has to suppose
And some better than others at making for themselves foes
But compassionate people are blessed indeed
For good Karma in life they do plant the good seed
Whilst some with their grudges their lifetime does live
They cannot forget and they cannot forgive.
