Tit For Tat- Poetry Soup Musings
Tit for tat, tit for that
I read this, you read that
Comment here, comment there
Pats on backs, everywhere
Some may read, but not post
Acting much, like a ghost
Some may post, but not care
Just to say…”Good job there!”
Be sincere, write what’s true
If you don’t, shame on you!!!
Don’t play nice, and just say
“Good work here, all the way!”
Yes, it’s good; be polite
Words can be “Dynamite!”
Blowing up self-esteem
Crushing out someone’s dream
Tit for tat, tit for tat
Said my piece; how about that?
It's not good? That’s OK!
I’ll survive, anyway
Least I got you to think
Might have caused a big stink
But we need to be REAL
Yes, it is…A BIG DEAL!
Beauty’s found everywhere
As we all...our souls bare
Loving posts we must trade
And not give just a grade
Just be nice; do think twice
Or someone pays the price
Broken hearts, broken dreams
No one reads, so it seems
Read them here, read them there
Poems are......everywhere!!!
Some from me, some from you
I'll share love; how 'bout you?
