Tongue

Tongue 
===============
Tongue is a great organ,
It helps to create words, 
Mightier than weapons,
It has the power to
Build or destroy an empire.

Two eyes, two ears, but one tongue,
 see more, listen more, talk less.
All parts of human body get tired 
eventually except the tongue.
The tongue is the only tool,
gets sharper with use.

Tongue is a small agent,
Capable of breaking the strongest 
and powerful relationship.
Bite the small agent and stop it,
when it is about to say something
 to hurt a person.

Tongue steers your life,
Therefore think before you
say something,
Even a fool will be considered a sage
 if he holds his tongue,
Know the value of guarding 
your tongue.

Sometimes words of your own mouth
 destroy your peace,
Never trust your tongue when your 
heart is bitter.
You can do very well on your own, 
if you control your tongue.
