No, I don't hold any grudges dear
I still consider you a friend.
Life goes on you know, time is short
This is now, and honey, that was then.
We all from time to time, I'm afraid
Utter hurting words that we don't really mean.
But as we grow and learn about ourselves
We know others aren't as bad as they once seemed.
You see, my dear, we can't afford to linger
On past pains and hurts and things that we regret.
The life we've yet to live is still before us
A destiny demanding it is met.
So lets' give each other a great forgiving hug
And let our mutual love fuse and blend.
The mistakes we made we will no longer dwell,
For this is now, and honey, that was then.
A poetic wise message written with words of art.
"That Was Then" delivers strong energy of harmony.
Keep posting, Poet!
