    Where mercy is let mercy be done
    asperge it until healing is won.
    It's not a commodity to buy
    nor is grace thatwanders on by.
    It lifts up people fallen in ditch .
    Mercy is the site where love abides,
    it soars with angels side by side
    and makes us wonder which is which.

    Mercy is a smile soothing a frown
    before depression kicks you to the ground.
    Where its presence is no one can know
    but its waters cause the heart to glow.
    It mingles in midst of war and strife
    deflecting bullets to save a life.
    Mercy ever sits upon its throne
    giving to all who weep and mourn.

    Mercy smiles upon the merciful,
    its healing force is not reversible,
    nor is its seek or its plan
    that which love failed to scan.
    It is a balm,though not asked,
    it is sufficient to its task.

      i often wish there was an equal amount of mercy in this world as there is violence and overwhelming hate, but to think this is wishy-washy dream-theatre, i know, and something that could never be measured, let alone subject to the idea of equilibrium. but one can always inflict kindness and beauty on others (i use 'inflict' ironically) in random acts, in how we choose to greet and converse with others.

    at least, i think that's what i try to do, and what i think you're saying too in your own way.

    where there is heart, a new flower blooms.

      you need a space: that wanders
    mercy is...

    do you realise the first stanza is missing a line that rhymes with ditch? it may be intentional but i just thought id ask

    this piece makes me think of a song [maybe by michael w smith but maybe not lol] that has lyrics something along the lines of 'mercy came running/like a prisoner set free/past all my failures/to the point of my need/when the sin that i carried/was all i could see/when i could not see mercy/mercy came running for me'

    yeah... i like the idea that mercy is not reversible. mercy isnt always deserved but when it is given healing usually follows as a result...

    nice work
