I have spent a lifetime forgetting it,
and a lifetime regretting it.
I've always admired people
who can hold their tongues.
Sometimes, in a flash of their eyes,
you can even see their minds spinning
as they puzzle out the most appropriate responses
to questions or ideas.
They actually think before they speak,
and when they do speak,
they somehow know when to stop.
Me?
I don't know.
Sometimes I'm a fresh and soft breeze of spring.
Pleasant to see and listen....
Other times I do not recognize me.
It seems that the truth speaks aloud,
as if I said: That's enough!
But I know that even have my moments
the balance and the less said the better.
And you?
