OLD SAYINGS

When I was young, these old sayings mom shared with me;
roses are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet and so are you.
Sticks and stones will break your bones but words will never hurt you.
The first could possibly be true, but the one about sticks and stones,
I don't think is true. Words can cause great pain, break the heart ,
and the soul forever maim. The one on the hurtful end may never,
recover or forget and words can cause great sorrow and deep regret.
Sticks and stone will break your bones and if you let them,
hurting words could destroy you. So be careful little tongue,
what you say, words can either make or break a person's day!
