In this life you hear it,
Hear so much rubbish
Spoken by so many.
The words just come out,
Come out without thought,
Almost like turning on a tap,
The words flow without any truth.
What you must do is remember,
Remember what a wise person would do.
A wise person would fill their brain,
Fill their brain with truth,
Truth and meaningfulness
Before emptying their mouth.

Squeezed sponge doesn’t absorb any moisture.
Silence doesn’t imply anything learnt.
There’s some folks remain closed as an oyster;
But to question what is truth is to get burnt.
However, I can't stand the garrulous either, Andy.
Thanks for your words Dave, much appreciated.

I have this arrangement with Andy (asked his permission) to pop a quatrain in response to his daily specials. Been doing it for a while. I lack inspiration right now - Andy provides the stimulus - I owe him a debt of gratitude.
................. much respect to the pair of ya 🙂
You describe well the need for wise words today Andy - - thank you for the reminder that we live in a careless world.
Thank you for your kind words Fay.

The negative thoughts that are birthed and entertained are myriad. Then they produce in turn suspicion and distrust, narrowed mindedness and intolerance. So crazy. So true. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you cb for your insight.

A point exceedingly well postulated Andy ... Neville
