Second Chance Poem by Bob Oldfield

Second Chance

Rating: 5.0


For all the times that I mess up
In my enthusiam
To try to do things my way;
In my pig-headedness
To think I know what's best;
In my determination
To prove that I am right.
Yes, for all those times that
I simply get it very wrong indeed,
When you should be giving me
A piece of your mind,
When you should be showing me
The door,
When you should be merciless
To this fallen mess of humanity
Instead... you give me
A second chance.

Phew!

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

Just an amazing truthful piece of work! I love this poem as it could be used by anyone as an apology letter...as it fits probably most situations. I will bookmark it in case I ever need to use it! If you want I have a poem called 'An apology'...that maybe you would like to read.After reading yours it put me in mind of the apology I wrote...Anyway, one way or the other, Have a Great day.((Smile)) Keep sharing as you have talent! =Shelley= ten out 0f 10! ! !
