Poem

When lies are spread, destruction reigns.
Hearts break and love bears ugly stains.
Truth is obscured; grief lurks ahead.
Destruction reigns when lies are spread.

Truths may be told with harsh intent.
No good results, for none was meant!
Some wield cold truths with words so bold.
With harsh intent, truths may be told.

Half-truths arise, that heinous mix,
the cause of hurts time may not fix.
Confusion leads to Truth’s demise.
That heinous mix, half-truths arise.

Before we speak, let’s taste each word.
Truth’s pure intent cannot be blurred
by lies or spite if good we seek.
Let’s taste each word before we speak.
