This poem speaks for itself


Poem Artwork

Let me tell you about a story
That I heard today
About a family torn apart
Robbed of yesterday

Harsh words were said 
Many were the tears
The days turned into months
The months turned into years

Not another word was spoken
Each went their separate ways
Lost were the hugs and kisses
Gone were the happy days

I'm asking you to make amends 
Dry away the tears
Pick up the telephone, my friend
Dissolve those wasted years

Precious minutes are passing
Please don't delay 
Don't waste another minute 
Make that call today

Send the roses, write that letter
Touch that longing heart
Just one word from you  
Would make a good start 

Don't wait until it's too late
God will tell you what to say
Don't let yesterday's sorrows
Blind you of today


Give your brother a hug
Tell your Mother "I love you"
Don't live in heartache and pain
All your life through


God has not promised tomorrow
Please don't wait till then
Don't put it off,  do it NOW
I'm talking to YOU, my friend

So absolutely true....
Been there....but it has come right eventually...
It is always worth the effort, but it takes agreement on both sides for it to work....
Best wishes,
Diana...

Hmmm, I gave my brother a hug and he hit me in the mug. Great sentiments! Forgiving is healing even if the other don't want to know, as is letting go of any misguided, self-hurting thoughts.

Great rhythm through out this poem.
