Life's Bitter Harvest

Enjoyed the write. Wonderful Ingrid!!!

I like the style of this piece, Ingrid. The lack of rhyming let the message come through without being forced, but the stanzas imposed some structure on the whole. The effect is that of a mantra, almost - something that you could clutch to your chest and repeat in times of need. Almost a prayer of letting go and renewal - a concept that is almost always bittersweet.

SO sad but so strong....Ingrid in this poem you did show the person you are, the amazing personality you have. The strength in you, not to allow life and its hardships and mean creatures to break you down.

TO be able to hold on, and to let god be the one who punish ppl for their wrongs and injustice with you. Thats such a gr8 quality, which you taught ME to.

and here God sees all

time has come
the time is now

I leave behind
the bitter harvest
of a life filled with pain

and start anew

yes very true, keep the hurt..the tears the sadness the pain..for the past and live a new life. Knowing that what goes around comes around, and those who have hurt you shall regret.

Such a strong poem, filled my heart with thoughts :)
