Opinions  in  our  Pockets
~~~

Lets  keep  opinions  in  our  pockets
at  the  bottom  out  of  sight
Wrong  conclusions  to  a  problem
seldom  sheds  it  any  light
~
An  altercation  row  or  ruckus
when  too  hasty  we  decide
Perhaps  can  be  avoided
once  we  see  the  other  side
~
As  we  wander  on  our  journey
try  to  look  beyond  ourselves
Extending  all  the  olive  branch
instead  of  who  to  pelf
~
If  we  try  to  lend  a  helping  hand
with  smile  upon  our  face
our  deeds  could  root  throughout  the  land
and  save  the  human  race
~
We  can  find  the  best  solutions
ditch  the  ones  we  thought   we  knew
pull  together  for  the  better
watch  what  other  people  do
~
With  our  friends  around  our  table
and  our  lights  all  burning  bright
We  will  never  trip  and  stumble
past  the  answer  in  the  night
~
Develop  wisdom  used  with  caution
always  stop  to  look  around
Try  to  greet  your  new  Horizon
with  your  feet  upon  the  ground
~~~

Good thoughts and wise words, Rex. I'll think of them the next time I get the urge to pelf somebody!

Rex
I thank you for opening my eyes
sometimes when we get hurt we lash out in a not so appropriate way and i thank you for posting this.
