Purity of Forgiveness

Waking up this morn and looking outside,
My eyes gets a glimpse and open wide;
For I see such a beautiful layer of snow,
Reflecting from the ground a whitish glow;
A blanket for covering of pure and white,
As it sparkles and glistens in my sight;
Such beauty and tranquility to behold,
Standing where the air is crisp and cold;
I think about the reason for this event,
For the very reason for sin we repent;
Just as the snow has made all look pure,
Same is for us as God's blessings pour;
When we repent to God forgiving our sin,
He starts to cleanse us very deep within;
The cleansing power removes the grime,
That we sincerely repent for what crime;
Feeling refreshed, your spirit is renewed,
That changes your outlook and attitude;
To err is human and forgiving is divine,
Forgiveness makes your soul to shine.
