My grandmother used to say <br />you can't threaten <br />a poor man with poverty <br />a loveless soul with loneliness <br />a hard heart with pitilessness <br />because all these <br />lacks <br />are never noticed by those <br />already far gone. <br /> <br />You don't bring coals to Newcastle <br />bride an honest man <br />teach character- <br />that is something which must be lived- <br />Never try she would say <br />to be young past your age <br />kiss evil on the mouth <br />break the golden rule <br /> <br /> <br />Never kick a person when they are down <br />take victory laps <br />brag over small successes <br />Never tell your truth and ignore <br />the truth of others <br />think that you are the smartest person in the room <br />at all times; <br /> <br />My grandmother used to say. <br /> <br />Understand <br />she would say <br />that when you die <br />your only chance to live forever <br />is to spend you life <br />loving others. <br />My Grandmother used to say.<br /><br />Lonnie Hicks<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/my-grandmother-used-to-say/
