One Real Person Is Enough
In a world of fancy clothes lipstick and slapstick jokes
its not the swift flash dance that lasts but the fire stoke
its not that quick silver tongue that fudges with untruth
but the heart that lives in its abode like a joyful sleuth
In a world where music and drama is a thing of the past
its not the talks revered with jabble dabble social blast
its the quiet moments we spend on the carpet nest
that gives our soul sustenance so never be a guest
In a world where some love you and some throw a shoe
its not their opinions that count but what you think of you
its that joy in your heart they can't steal nor eat for a meal
so be a "REAL" person, speak only words that weigh.
