Spider veins
in a family tree;
lower branches
are breaking free
from generations
of rotten fruit;
mercy’s axe
is at the root.

Meanwhile, Melody Muses... 
Excellent!
🙂 Rather a bittersweet celebration, eh?
A lot of flakes on that family tree – LOL
Bare trees really do look beautiful dressed in snow though.
They sure do. Between frost and snow and bare and back again, they are a constantly changing masterpiece!
Wow, Melody . .I love what you brought us in this one. Short, but a lot said! Thanks!
Thank you Debbie! It is a glory indeed when generational sins are broken by grace, and new patterns are passed down…
Gorgeous picture and hope filled poem, Melody! We can fall far from the family tree when we need to. I came from an unsaved broken one so I like this poem a lot!!

Grace fills in the missing pieces of what we received broken, that’s for sure…
Yes, and then we can share that grace with the others on the family tree.
If they choose to receive it… Yes, there is always hope.
