Silence is truly golden

Silence is truly golden especially
when the chicken coop is already
filled with so many cackling
hens like one huge gossip column

And I find it deeply saddening and disturbing
that people can say something about someone
and how everything can get so tossed and turned
around when they hardly even know the person

That's why I have refrained from
saying anything
about anyone in a negative way

And it is the right way to be
if you
will think about it for awhile
because it is the right decision

And it also makes you a better person to keep things
general when you are talking about someone
by not letting things get blown way out of proportion

Because it commands respect towards everyone

And it is far better than being in a chicken
coop that
 is already filled with so many cackling hens

That's why in my own opinion I have come
to the conclusion that silence is truly golden


(If you do not have anything good to say about
someone don't you think that
it would be better not to say anything at all?)
