Think Twice Forgive and forget what was said in the past The words that offended were not meant to last Our comments are not etched in granite, and yet The heart will recall what the mind will forget Before you proceed with a rude word or act That once said and done you can never retract Whether you are the giver or reaper of scorn It’s a permanent deed you forever will mourn Elizabeth Santos |

This is very true...It reminds me of what my mom said to me as a child "Think before you speak"..I must admit that I am still working on it as an adult! Great piece.....beth You can never have too much fiction; reality can be such a bore |
