Dress Respectfully.

Goldfinch60



There I was drinking coffee

In the coffee house,

Sitting with my lover and a friend,

When looking out the window we saw her,

A young lady.

She was wearing shorts so tight

She almost looked naked.

And our friend said to us

“If I were her mother

I’d tell her not to go out like that!”

And we all laughed,

Remembering those olden days

When respect for all was there,

Unlike these modern days.

    Good write Gold. In church we should be smart but can be informal, I would say. Sometimes, even leaders, wear those awful shredded jeans. Maybe appearing 'poor' - after our dosh?! (money).
