Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

Ponder and thought
or so we ought
rather than blurt and bluster
which can make others fluster
well, enough of the rhyme at least
to put my mind at ease
thinking on the wisdom of the Proverb
to think before we speak,
hard for one who thinks on his feet
in the words in the ether
dancing in rhythms of their own
coalescing in cogent truths
conjured in the process of speech

If one gives answer before hearing, it is folly and shame.
- Proverbs 18:13 (NRSV)
