Keep Your Fences Sound
Mend your people fences
Keep them in repair
Not wise to be at odds
With those with which you care
Sad to see family’s split
And then drift apart
Someone hold out a hand
Give the fence mending a start
Agree to disagree
No need for conflict
Some subjects are Taboo
Just avoid what gets them “ticked”
Don’t let those words that hurt
Force you to strike back
Count to ten, let it ride
Keep your fences all in tact
Differences aren’t bad
Makes the world go round
Practice “Live and Let Live”
And keep your fences sound
