 or have poison tips

Oh, such bite. There are friends, and there ARE friends. One never knows if the next one's for real or not, that is why we never close our doors for new ones...but maybe that's just me. Powerful senryu, Viv. Hope you're keeping well. hugs

Fortunately, James, time and age bring wisdom, and arrow selection gets easier. Thanks for popping by. Regards, Viv

Hmm. Very interesting, sir. I am thinking that a gossiping friend is one of them poison tipped arrows. I have done my share in life, but then, the people weren't really very good friends. Why is spreading gossip so much fun at times???? It certainly starts a conversation. You, however, I would never gossip about!!!
