Speak softly

  Words said unwisely in anger,

  Fiery in rage’s red,

  Enjoying this book? Seek out the original to ensure the author gets credit.

  Cannot be taken back

  In the peace of tomorrow.

  Shattered friendships, broken hearts,

  Hold your tongue ‘fore it starts.

  Debate and argument, the twin son of Janus.

  One peaceful, one of anger.

  The art of passionate speaking turns both ways.

  So be careful what you say to a friend,

  And so friend they’ll stay,

  Until the end of the end of days.
