Poetry
The Gossiper
Gossip in any form, is destructive
spiteful words destroy a man’s soul
When words of gossip are repeated
they’ll soon spread, out of control
Gossip creates hurt and confusion
which easily shatters, a fragile heart
Not knowing if the truth is spoken
gossip should be halted at the start
Cruel words leave sorrow in it’s path
and never stop until the hurt is done
Like a snowball, rolling down the hill
each tumble gathers more on the run
Gossip is like spiny thorns on a rose
which often pierces the delicate skin
It leaves pain no matter how it’s told
many lives become entangled therein
Spears of gossip are like barbed wire
it entraps both bearer and the hearer
To void being caught up in the barbs
keep a distance… never come nearer
Be ever careful, of things you repeat
hurtful words always plays for keeps
And remember the words Jesus said
whatsoever man sows, he also reaps
