Hold It!

"Whoever keeps his mouth and his tongue keeps
himself out of trouble."
Proverbs 21:23

When in a situation, 
when feeling consternation--
The best thing for you to say? 
Just keep your words at bay.

It really doesn't matter;
None want to hear your chatter.
An active tongue can hurt you.
So keep your words inside you.

It is difficult to control it;
The best way is to hold it.
There is a time to say,
But before you do, please pray.

Yeah, so well put. And I don't think we're supposed to pray, 'Lord forgive me for what I'm about to say.' :-)

I love and eat honey all the time. I used to help with hives and eat the cone. So good. Just never thought of it like you. Nicely done.
