a busy person
a friend of mine
fellow hater of whine
yet
can't help
but keep the spects
of skepticism
or more precisely
of cynicism
on
had enough one day
said mate
you're a busy man
you got time
God knows how
to judge and look for
misplaced grudge
from people
both near and far
not everyone approaches
with intent of war
yet your look out
for that
keeps ya peace
far away
let no ships
of grudge and malice
dock themselves
at yout heart's bay
life's easy
keep it
that way

Wise words you offered your friend, from lessons learned.
I have said to many during my life,
"I have no reason to mistrust you until you give me one"
(Life's drawbridge need not rust in the upright position.)
A closed mind and heart is a lonely place to dwell.
I'll choose the light and warmth, for it is not I who
should judge the storms that come and go.
Like you, my friend, I encourage others to join us.

"just not being mean/unkind." ... that about sums it up for me. "by their fruit shall ye know them" springs to mind. Nice write.

I agree with PoetSpeak...keep our minds on our business and eyes on our road. We'll get through it. Life throws enough pitfalls at us as it is. No sense risking adding unnecessary stress to the load. Much enjoyed

welcome
is the Poet admired.
welcome
is the review insightful and kind.
well, as they say better be occasionally cheated than be perpetually suspicious. I fail to see how these people find time to be occupied by new negatives when life as you sed throws enough already anyways.
Yes, unnecessary indeed the stress.
Appreciate

Truth. We attract what we think - and if it's discord, then discord we'll reap.

Ahavati,
"We attract what we think - and if it's discord, then discord we'll reap."
You should post this as a poem AND a quote.
