White lies

Telling a white lie Sure is easy, am I right? But dig further in your mind Why must you lie? Is the truth not good enough for you? When you were a kid Did you say you wore a tutu When really, you still slept with your teddy named moo moo It's alright if the truth isn't cool But think about the lasting affect Don't make yourself look like a fool Be kind and tell them

Well, congratulations on your poem being on the home page today. Way to go. Yes, little lies can lead to big lies which can really become problematic. Thanks for sharing. Sara K

There is not a single thing wrong with a white lie, is lies meant to deceive, sometimes a lie is meant to be kind and not hurt someone one, thus the term white lie. Is always the intent, and kindness is always kindness! :)

It's just a silly poem, I have no problem against white lies used like that!
