A humorous mistake prompted this one…
Sayings
Oh, made that mistake
Pinch & Punch first day of the month
And it’s February 29th.
A funny little ritual
Like many others
Sayings we use to fill a void.
It’s a hard life but someone has to do it!
Hot enough for ya?
A few that bounce around the park.
Social niceties important
All part of emotional intelligence
Smoothing our way through life.
Not wanting to appear abrupt
Or worse indifferent
Ignoring is a powerful weapon.
Early impressions are important
At times, hard to overcome
And only with much effort.
So most of us learn
To put our best foot forward
Obscuring our tainted side.
This, of course, we all have
The only recipe for ongoing success
Practising kindness ‘ere we can.
