The Havoc We May Wreak Poem by Audrey Heller

Sometimes, we say things and wonder why!
You felt at the moment, you said everything
right, but it manages, to slip right by. It's hard
to keep track, of all the things you say! If indeed,
you said something wrong, it wasn't meant, to be
that way! If someone really knows you, they'll not
take offense, if what you said, came out wrong. It
probably, was a slip of the tongue and they should
realize that and then, move right along! We all have
moments, when we say things, without thinking
before we speak! Never realizing, the havoc, we
may wreak! Next time, we have to put into practice,
to think before we utter a word. So, that whatever
comes out, shouldn't be, absurd!
