Are You Nursing a Grudge?


My friend, Dabuoy, has a blog called "What the F**K Is He Talking About?" (http://dabuoy.blogspot.ca).  He recently posted this poem which I find just a little scary.


I held a grudge today...

I held it gentle
as a baby
cooing
all the while

I held a grudge today...

I traced my love
upon its furrowed 
brow
and giggled

I held a grudge today...

I nursed it
I burped it
I changed it
I learnt from it

I held a grudge today...

I taught it to hunt
I taught it to protect
I taught it respect
I taught it to love

I held a grudge today...

It called me 'MOM'
