Temper Your Rage

January 16, 2015

Inspirational, Poetry, Spiritual

Temper your rage toward others dear one

It blinds you and fogs the mirror.

Incapable of seeing yourself in others, hate festers,

Turning gangrenous, unable to heal.

What angers you is that which you cannot admit;

You are Siamese–connected by a tiny spark,

The spark of the soul, beyond our human frailties.

Anger, hate, race, creed, color melt away

When viewed in the brightness of Divine light.

Unconditional love takes up residence

Welcoming the essence of all into her warmth.

With this, differences can no longer survive…

And for once we can live in total peace.

~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~

Beautifully said, Dominic. How ironic that to temper (tame) is related to our temper (rage)…language is quite intriguing.

  It is indeed, subtleties of language can greatly change the meaning of a statement, thank you for the nice comment Cheryl-Lynn.
