Probably Not

"It's too good to be true" 
I think about that saying a lot 
But yes, if it seems true 
Then, let me tell you 
Most often it's probably not

Can't always say it's too good to be true. We all make mistakes.

LOL- I guess you can say that. "Never look a gift horse in the mouth" I preach that to my kids all the time :) And yes, cliche's are silly but there is truth to them. Great to hear from you, Daniel. Have a great weekend! Sorry I gotta go, need to hit the john (lol)

The more we become in tune with our conscience ourselves and God the closer we are to being revealed by heart, soul and intention of man. Yes this world is full of fakes, and narcistic ways, but every now and then we find jewels, don't give up looking for those rare gems, they aren't found it crowds, only in nature and deep forests, Thank you for sharing, it was a pleasure reading your poem today, :)
