Mistakes are lessons
not punishments
Even angels make mistakes
Lucifer
The Bringer of Light
God's beloved angel
Fell to the darkness
when he craved power
above god
Upheld his ego
by waging a war
against those he loved
He thought winning
a battle of pride
would make him powerful
One is neither above or below
what flows through us all
To make that mistake
is a disgrace to us all
It lures those humbled by light
to lust for the devil's gratification
The itch to scratch
the pain of failure
with something
that voids you
from actually facing it
An inviting detriment
that incinerates the lesson
with hell's firey sensation
Even angels make mistakes
Learn to accept mistakes
with grace
Then when you fall
you can get up again
look at yourself
forgive
and learn the lesson

A Dart at Dusk
Seconds ago, the sullen sun set on the two of us… my exuberant furry companion and me. A fresh breeze embraces us, delivering welcome relief from the day’s oppressive heat. His typical stumbling and staggering along — apace with a sloth — has turned into trip-trapping, high-stepping, almost skipping along.
