I have learned throughout time, <br />The hard and painful ways <br />To listen with empty ears, <br />To those nasty and disturbing words <br />That I may encounter any day <br />Fluttering in the air... <br /> <br />I cannot afford negative forces <br />To overshadow the peace of mind <br />And spirituality within me... <br />Walking away from boisterous events <br />Seems to be my best choice, <br />For reasoning and wisdom <br />Must always prevail... <br /> <br /> <br />©All Rights Reserved-2011<br /><br />Romeo Della Valle<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-wise-choice/
