'Tis said money speaks every language and talk can come cheap <br />But a promise you make is one you ought to keep <br />Your word should be your bond but with some 'tis not that way <br />Some don't stick to their word that does seem sad to say. <br /> <br />With honourable people the World does not abound <br />And when it comes to money trust is hard to be found <br />That's why we have legal documents some to their word not true <br />Those who honour their word great respect are due. <br /> <br />Your word you should honour that is how it should be <br />But some people are only known for their dishonesty <br />Their word is quite worthless they cannot be taken on trust <br />But their word it is sacred to the honourable and just. <br /> <br />The honourable people their word never break <br />And they never go back on a promise they make <br />But those without honour their word never keep <br />And the karma we sow is the karma we'll reap.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/your-word-should-be-your-bond/
