crushed violets


“Forgiveness is the fragrance the violet sheds
on the heel that crushes it” Mark Twain

BLUE violets, withered,
trodden undefoot by the
offenders boot
their spirits crushed their
voices hushed


As I cry questioning
why I am reminded they
have forgiven and so must I!


AND until they rise from
their dusty tombs weeping

violets sleep
until once again they bloom!


The 3rd Sunday of January
Embraces the Sanctity of
every Human Life.
Could the abuse and neglect
of children also be
included as well?
