The title of this poem is All That Really Matters and the author is unknown. Life is too short for griveances, For quarrels or tears, What's the use of wasting Precious days and precious tears. If there's something to forgive, Forgive without delay.... Maybe you too, were part to blame, So make it up today. Be generous, forget the past And take the broader view, Cast away all bitterness and Let the sunshine through. If it's within your power A broken heart to mend, Remember......... Love is what really matters ...in the end. I just love poetry. Are any of you poets?All my best, Jerryn

That was a great poem. Very touching! I’m not a poet- but I do love poetry. It’s amazing how a poem can tell a story or get a point across in so few words. Thanks for sharing that with us!

I also love poetry, and his is really a nice one, some of them can sometimes touch your heart strings just at the right places. Unfortunately I can't even get two sentences to rhyme!

Thanks for responding. Some of us are just readers and some are just skillful at writing poetry. It's like books, I've never written one but I enjoyed reading it.

Thanks, many uplifting thoughts in this poem. I like the positive thoughts and writing poetry is not necessarily rhyming, if you just find the right rhythm, you have a poem written from your heart, a unique work of art. Maybe you have seen a couple of poems I have written. They are in my profile.

I saw the poems in your profile and I really like the one about opening doors. The mesage is a very positive one. I used to be a GNLD rep but it didn't work out for me. I'm now a user of the Himalayan Goji Juice. While I was getting my chemo treatments my energy level was never compromised. I hope you're doing well with GNLD. All my best, Jerryn
