Hasty Conclusions

My friend
Sent me a message
And asked me
To take a look at it!
 
I tore open
The envelope,
Emptied the content,
Spread it on my table

Then, I called my friend
And, yelled at him
‘That Was a blank paper
You sent me…”
 
If only I had turned 
The page over,
I would have seen
What he told me…

That the message
Was on the other side!
Our life
Is full of such hasty conclusions!
