“Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these?”
Simon Peter answered him,
“Yes, Lord, you know that I love you.”
Jesus said to him, “Feed my lambs.”

(Gospel)


I know you don’t 
mean 
to hurt others

I know you hurt 
them 
I know you are 
mean 
at times

I know too that 
you are sorry 
for all of this

it takes time 
if you wish 
to forgive
if you wish 
to ask pardon

and be pardoned—

it will be given 
to you 
maybe no words 
will 
be necessary

trust in me 
and 
trust others

I understand 
you 
do you understand me

come, waste some
time with me
