A Miracle

A Poem About Courage And Forgiveness

Giovanni Cefalo
Spiritual Tree

--

Inner revolutions often lead
To concrete actions, like a seed:
Before invisible,
Then a tree.

I used to have my demons
Make me feel forlorn
Embrace pride and resentment
Against people I should have loved.

Then God, in a wave of forgiveness
Granted me strength
To apologize for my weakness
And frailty withstand

The long term battle with life at stake
Can only be won by admitting defeat.
Words are unable to express what it takes…
A Miracle. You see?

And you were there
On the battlefield
With me.
