Charades Just the other day I happened to open my mouth and even I couldn't believe the words that came out. It was an independent thought with no reason or rhyme a feeble attempt to verbalize a humorous line. Fortunately, this time, for a change the damage was minimal yet nevertheless I was left feeling no less criminal. Since then I've nary a word spoken- just a nod or shake of my head from fear that hurt or harm will result from something I've said. So now that I've decided to shun lengthy word parades I spend my spare time learning a new game called "Charades"!

This is great, I've many times when both feet find my mouth and I wish I could learn the trick of becoming invisible. |

You're an honest man, Robert. There's nothing wrong with voicing an honest opinion in a poem. Just don't be b r u t a l l y honest. Truth and love are both needed to create mutual understanding. Willem |

Thanks Willem. I am not sure I know how to be brutally honest. It goes against everything I was taught. Sometimes I have found myself almost lying not to hurt someone. I did try to be brutal in the news groups and it didn't really help me or those that I was brutal with. I am really glad you are here Willem. I have been admiring your comments in other groups. I appreciate logic and honesty. You posess both and much more I hope we all can discover. Robert ------------------ if you can dream; you can fly...if you are flying; you are dreaming. |
