Hello!
Your questions is incomplete. The complete poem is:
An Arab Shepherd Is Searching For His Goat On Mount Zion
An Arab shepherd is searching for his goat on Mount Zion / and on the opposite hill I am searching for my little boy. / An Arab shepherd and a Jewish father / both in their temporary failure. / Our two voices met above / the Sultan’s Pool in the valley between us. / Neither of us wants the boy or the goat / to get caught in the wheels / of the “Chad Gadya” machine. / Afterward we found them among the bushes, / and our voices came back inside us / laughing and crying. / Searching for a goat or for a child has always been / the beginning of a new religion in these mountains.

The whole text has cultural references. Mount Zion, by its use and historical significance, the "sultan's swimming pool", being a specific reference of an Arab culture and the Chad Gaya, for being a musical style. The Arab shepherd, however, enters more into the perspective of common sense, and could be seen, from an alternative perspective, as an emptiness of cultural meaning.

Answer: I learned about the importance of forgiving
Explanation: I am a person with good feelings but before I always had a hard time forgiving others. It was difficult for me since I understood that others did not have to hurt me, so when I did not forgive I was filled with resentment. Over time I learned that forgiveness is the healthiest way to leave the past behind. You do not forgive yourself to make the other feel happy, but you forgive yourself to feel peace with yourself. Also through forgiveness, I learned that people often act in the way they have learned.
They’re all a theme in the novel, but the one that stands out the most would be A, sin.
