A Collection

Gossip remains

Upon one's shell-shaped ears

Far longer than the truth

Lies upon one's bow-shaped lips

**************************

It is easier to believe

That everyone dislikes

You rather than believe

That they love you

**************************

Love is like a flower

With the proper

Treatment it blooms

Without it, it withers and dies

**************************

Friendship is like love

Treated right,

it will last forever

Ignored, it will wither away

**************************

Come near, sit a spell, and listen to tales of old as I sit and rock by my fire. I'll serve you some cocoa and cookies as I tell you of the time long gone by when your Greats-greats once lived.
