    JUDGE NOT

     When you're busy blaming others
    Looking for a fault or two,
    Then it's time we started counting
    All the pretty things we do.

    There's a lot of good in others
    Maybe a lot of bad in me,
    So, I have no right in judging
    Faults of others that I see.

    Before we look for failings
    I have a better plan,
    And that is to keep my own house cleaner
    Before I judge another man.

    I love this. I write a lot on this topic because many people forget that none of us are perfect. It's important to take a look in the mirror before pointing that finger at the next man. Very well done!

    Hi "Teardrops". I hope to be doing alot of your readings later on tonight. There are about 9 hours difference in our times. From what I've read, you write with a beautiful pen.

    I hope to be reading more of your poems tonight in my quite time.

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
