Sweetness in words is more important than in food.
From the first of June, 2018, I started writing Good Morning messages in the form of poems (Please read: ‘Good Morning Message #1‘).
The last such message was: ‘Good Morning Message #118‘.
Good morning Friends,
We are so particular about food we serve and eat,
It should really have good aroma and taste;
It should be soft, it should be sweet,
And nothing of it should ever go waste.
It shouldn’t be pungent, it shouldn’t be bitter,
It should never make our eyes cry;
It shouldn’t make one unintended spitter,
It should be pleasant to tongue and eye.
Alas, none of these apply to words we use,
And we use them without a thought;
We don’t mind if these are hot and loose,
Or make our listeners completely distraught.
Blessed are those who have the fine art,
Of conveying disagreements with a smile,
Their utterances are never taken to heart,
Carrying everyone with them is their style.
May you be blessed with such a nature,
So that sweetness and smiles you spread;
May your speech add to your stature,
As a person of warm heart and level head.
May your day be nice and pleasant,
Even with those who don’t agree with you;
May peace and sanity be always present,
In everything you decide to say or do.
Choose Sweetness over Bitterness.
