A Foolish Man Keeps...,,,( Poem No. 600)
A foolish man keeps talking like a foolish woman;
A wise man understands the power of his words
as well as his silence and display of his integrity;
And willing to accept rebuke,
when caught in his repeated fault.
By Ms. Ging Alburo D.

Dedicated to someone
Who argue with me a lot
and never listen and thinks he's always right.
This piece is a backfire to the saying he picked up.
A big twist direct to the heart.
Sometimes my foolishness is greater
Than someones foolishness. Hehehe wink
Thank you for reading and rating:)
