Poem Artwork

There has been a shake up,
truly affecting my make up.
After careful consideration,
hate got an elimination.
Love got an overhaul,
some love is better
than no love at all.


I embrace what God tried to do,
he gave love to me and you.
I accept the love He tried to give,
the best life is to love & forgive.
Loving and forgiving isn't easy,
in a world full of mean & sleazy.


Many times I've tried the make up,
only to have love break up.
Trying to love humanity,
drives one almost to insanity.
Keeping a loving mate,
almost drives one through hells gate.
Love for self,
for a long time met ears deft.


Still I prefer love,
no matter how much negativity shove.
I love humanity,
I'll bare the insanity.
I love my mate,
it's apart of my fate.
I love myself most of all,
it's the best reason
love came to call.

I think we need to love ourselves in order to more fully love others. You say it so very well in your beautiful poem. R

For awhile there all your poems were on hatred and violence.
Now they are on love ,forgiving your enemies.Were only human and we do make mistakes but keep on trying to be a better person.Hold on to what GOD gave you,he'll always listen.Loved it ,Grady.
God Bless,
Michael

There is good introspection throughout this poem, my friend. Some self-analysis is good, but sometimes we have to just allow love to "be" and not question the "why". Write on, One!
Love,
CJ
