Silence is Golden!

Olive B. on Dec 14, 2009

Have you ever known anyone who JUST WON’T EVER SHUT UP?????

we all know that you take joy

in the sound of your own voice

but there’s no need to flaunt this preference

we’ve all had our moments.

if you like to jibber-jabber

engage in mindless, endless chatter

then please, for our sake do so

quietly.

silence can be worth more than words

at times, it’s almost like it’s own answer

it’s generally best to think before you speak

lesson learned.

has anyone ever mentioned to you

there is a limit; a talking curfew

obviously not, so let me enlighten you:

SILENCE IS GOLDEN!

Brevity is the soul of wit.

… some people can only be half-brief.

Nice piece tho.

I think you did great, don’t listen to others if you do, you’ll lose your passion to write, take it with a grain of salt and move on.

Hi there!
