Keeping the words from escaping into the air...darts ready to toss but not ready to hit any decent mark
thinking that wrapping them in ‘wisdom’ would dull any sting.
A desperate desire to speak my mind and not so softly
And yet…..
From early morning, snappish and cranky
words had begun their insistant escape
tone of voice tinged with annoyance.
The tone of the day set to ‘G’ for ‘Grumpy’
And yet…..
Working through each minute
challenging time and patience to win out
tidying and organizing
following policy and protocol
keeps the words quiet…..sort of..
“Speak when you are angry and you will make
the best speech you will ever regret.”
~ Groucho Marx
