Forgive

Forgive the infant girl that cries,
New to the world,
She's terrified.

Forgive the clouds that make it rain,
They spill their tears,
Expressing pain.

Forgive the ground: infertile, dry.
It seems we're never satisfied.

As humans we find it hard to forgive.
We do not think of others that live.

Our problems seem to magnify,
But should be seen through different eyes.

A blade of grass on extending plains,
we are irrelevant just the same.

Forgive those who cause pain and sorrow,
for no one knows what comes tomorrow...

It was a nice poem :) I like the flow the rhyming gives it.
"Forgive the clouds that make it rain,
They spill their tears,
Expressing pain." <-- I liked this stanza the most :)
"A blade of grass on extending plains," <-- I could see this clearly in my head.
I liked your use of imagery, it was great! Overall a fantabulous poem! Keep up the good work! :D

I thought this was a nice poem. It was simple but sweet, and there really weren't any major errors that jumped out at me. Overall I thought this was a nice read.
Keep writing,

this was my favorite line, and yes it is difficult to forgive sometimes, and you even have to forgive when someone doesn't even BOTHER to say sorry. I really hate that, I hate that YOU have to be the BIGGER person, I always have to take the initiative but I guess that prepares us for when we grow up and it gets easier to handle tough stuff like that. Anyway I really liked this poem it's very true.

Forgive Is this the title?

…….Forgive the ground: unfertile, dry. we usually say Infertile land, make infertile, dry’ the next line.

…………………we are irrelevent just the same. irrelevant, spelling error
Your errors were few, rhyming scheme,flow and concept was good. Good luck with the future. The poem though stillseemed to lack, imagery and emotion. Emotion was said not felt. Hope this helps.
