I'm glad my pencils have erasers!
That way, I never make a mistake...
Or, at least,
One I cannot fix!
There have, however, been other things,
Not contained in these written words,
But actions of love, or hate......................
Pains which cannot be changed.............
My actions, ones which hurt others,
Or brought anguish to myself,
And I can't erase them
Or make them better.
So, this prayer rises
To You, my Father,
For your love to cover me,
And to erase my mistakes.
Scarlett Treat
