Some Will Say
Some will say
The Rondel Grand Modified
Let's accept fact, none is perfect
Yes, errors occur though 'twas checked;
It is OK, don't be upset.
Oh! yes, there is a fear of threat;
Some will say odds, decry.
There will be some people who will
show mistakes, write harsh words with skill;
They'll try to defame, to frustrate
through scathing words, try to negate.
Some will say words to slam.
We can't control what others say;
But, we can curb to stay away.
Lets internalize the content
of comments and learn, know intent;
Some will say with dismay.
First response on flak presented
most will become just defensive.
Let's stop instant reaction, pause
for a moment, ...never faux pas.
Some will say words with wrath.
Don't strike such critics, to settle;
Why one should stoop to that level?
Don't have to commit the same sins.
Realize in a war none wins?
Some will say words show strength.
Let’s rise above attacks, petty
insult; it makes one unsteady.
Better to respond in quiet.
positive manner, be silent.
Some will say, do your work.
One must remain positive, take
criticism well, to curb mistake.
Lets take chance, be better person;
Avoid conflict, peace is certain.
Some will say , let them say.
