Jerry T Curtis Poet Rhyme

Let It Ride

I love when people speak their mind
I'd rather not be guessing
I may not care for what they say
Or points they are professing 

But as long, as there's respect
Void of all pretension
I agree to disagree 
With them and their dissensions 

Should that make them enemies
I hope that's never true
For, we need each others thoughts
To help expand our views

If I should seem to say a word
To cause anger in their eyes
I hope they do, what I've learned do
And just let it ride on by

Paul Callus June 5, 2015 at 8:21 AM I'm with you on this one, Jerry. Honesty is the best policy. Not all might agree with our views, but at least they'll know where they stand. Diplomacy and tact can also give a helping hand. #7 // paul Jerry T Curtis June 5, 2015 at 3:01 PM Thank you Paul, I found out the one thing in life that matters---it's everybody
