Yalto
Invented by Edward Ibeh: line 1 to 15: 3,4,2,4,5,3,2,3,2,3,3,5,6,1,5, no rhyme required.

When I feel my words under attack by a critic I check the truth of their critique, to judge whether I pay heed or ignore their advice, they may mean well or think they have talent but, I rarely respond. (Yalto) 11-06-2020 Judged By A Jury Of Your Peers Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Mark Koplin

Silence is golden many a time.Critiscm can be constructive or destructive. Many people mean well but there are always those few which don't.So we have to be as wise as a fox..to choose the good from bad. Loved your post.
