A Short Memory Is A Blessing Poem by Belle Wassermeister
A Short Memory Is A Blessing
My mother always told me that
we shouldn't hold a grudge.
If someone has done wrong by us,
make them a plate of fudge.
Did Jesus say if we are struck,
we turn the other cheek?
The world will not be ruled by might,
but given to the meek?
In older times, ‘twas tooth for tooth
and an eye for an eye.
Short mem'ries are a blessing, but
I can't remember why.
Belle, Are you SURE that YOU wrote this? ? ? I 'love' it! ! ! 5 stars ***** and to favorites. I'll take two plates, please, on chocolate and the other peanut butter. : ))) bri
OOPS! It SHOULD read: 'one' chocolate and the other peanut butter. And I mean the FUDGE! ! ! Don't forget the ice cream.
Wisdom, humour, great message and beautiful writing...all wrapped up in an amazing poem!
Memory - not too short. You recalled everything from childhood days to adulthood and now enjoying everything, but some recent memories will be short lived. Fantastic Poem. Liked it Full ****
