Nice and Easy

As a matter of fact 
 it needs a little tact   
  just to tell somebody
   that he is a loony.  

Better kill with a smile  
 than old-fashioned guile,
  employing a hammer
   rather than a dagger.

Always aim to be nice 
 under whatever guise,
  it is good policy
   to use diplomacy.

I'll say. A killer smile is a perfect weapon. Amazing how people react, when you use tact. Good thinking and good writing. Love, Shar
