Two poems

“Strong” by yours truly
“I raised you to be strong
All along
About things like social lingerings
And rejected engagement rings.
Life brings what it brings.”
“But sometimes my mind sings,
And before sleep the heart pings.
A sadness near madness.”

“Doubting” by yours truly
“Blessed are those who have not seen
But still believe,”
Christ said of Doubting Thomas.
“Whose sins you forgive
Are forgiven you.”
Can you forgive people for things not admitted.
Christ did.
