37. 1912 Truth Silent

Truth Silent



We have so wronged the truth with spoken words
Words, where an utter silence should have been
The Gods are greatly simple they touch hands
And laugh and love and no thought lies between
Yet we have built our souls a wall
Of foolish words, false thoughts that could not tire
In a great silence but were born of speech
And being born were bitter to forgive
The Gods must pity those who would not keep
Their priceless Gift. Truth silence is so clear
To simple god-like hearts and we are dear
How blind we are surely the gods must weep




What is that expression? Least said ... soonest mended..... wise words
