Tell It Like It Is
Strong member it if you can for that is what counts
spend some quiet time in reading it shall surmount
Give it balance. A good site is made up of work n' play
if not, all your good intentions may turn to hay...
Write the poems you want
Read the ones you like
Invite conversation
Tell it like it is, but be kind and do it with tact
Elect to keep silent, and don't partake in gossip
Read in the early morning or late evening
Enjoy a few poems, its other people's labor
And be kind everyone fights a battle
Don't give in to resentment its a lonely road
Strong member it if you want to belong to a site
and remember not everything is in black and white
Don't believe everything you hear psst, draw near
I want to tell you a secret, "writing is not my career "
It is my passion...
