It is not always easy to control my tongue, but I can work on it.
Let Me
As down the road, I walk
Let me
Sing and choose my talk,
Think before I speak in just a blink.
Skip into the day, considering what I say.
As I daily trod,
Let me
Speak words not emotionally flawed,
Hold my tongue before my speech is sung.
Take considerate note
Before speaking thoughts that quickly float.
Let not
My mouth be put in motion with rising emotion.
Through my walk,
Let me
Quietly choose my talk,
Taking the higher road before my words are sowed.
