THE TONGUE
Balanced like a priceless spinning wheel
The feelings of a man inside his soul doth reel.
So keep respectfully some distance apart
And never crudely shock another person's heart.
Indeed don't get too familiar with anyone you know,
For senseless jests have often turned a friend into a foe.
What to you may be some amusing joke,
Could well upset a host of other folk.
So keep you language clean and don't offend
Remember your little tongue can make or break your friend.
Flippant idle words, who can control the tide
They start a flowing all unseen inside.
And remember when all is said and done below
The true worth of a man will only show
Not so much by what he had to say
But how he lived his life from day to day!
