Devotional Poetry

Forgiveness

1
Forgiveness

In a small moment,
in the time it takes a thought to move
from dendrite to axon,
and from axon to dendrite
I forgave.

I forgave the silence of your absence,
I forgave the echoes of his fear,
I forgave the nakedness of my terror,
I forgave and in forgiving
I transformed doubt to faith,
and faith to certitude.

2
Grace of God

When the sun clears the horizon,
We get a second chance,
Through the grace of God.
