Niceness Not Nasty
Being rude, nasty and mean
Is something that should not be seen
Problems need to be talked out
With kind words-- not screams and shouts
Its not a problem or a bother
Niceness goes a whole lot further
Harsh words and fights just lead to
Sorrowness for me and you
If anger starts to burn inside
With fury that we can not hide
Take a breath and count to ten
Before it builds back up again
Doing things we might regret
Taking a step back will let
The anger start to fade away
And words of sorry we will say
Making things from wrong to right
And learning from this hurtful fight
Thinking before words are said
That can cause a lot of dread
