As I mentioned in yesterday’s post I was struggling a bit with finding people to write about and I realized I was picking people I found inspiring, happy and joyful. It would seem, the ones who are hangry, short-tempered and nasty are the ones needing love more.
But I am no saint so sending them love, well, not so easy.
So I decided that while I may not be in a place to pick a specific person in my life and send them love that I can write a general poem to people like that. Perhaps by the end of this challenge I can send love to specifically challenging people within my life.
Perhaps….
To the person who makes my blood boil
with anger and rage
Whose existence in this world
makes my days a little less bright
I want to give you a name
and offer to you love
I am not strong enough yet
So rather today, I offer love
to all those who have ever made another upset
For anyone who has ever caused another pain
I send you love
For anyone who has ever yelled at another
I send you love
For anyone that has ever broken a promise
I send you love
For anyone who has ever been selfish
I send you love
And to anyone who has ever been unfair
I send you love
Dear Michelle,
Thank you for the love – who of us isn't included in that group you wrote of today. The curmudgeons of the world need Love, too! Great piece. PS This anti spam is driving me crazy!
Barb thank you-and yes I am so glad you saw my point that we are all that to someone 🙂
