Yes, honesty is the way to go. Your theme has meaning and purpose in your words. "To lie, deceive, hurts you the most" is my favorite line, it has meaning and is a use of words that is full of wisdom. Excellent poem with an important theme.

Yes, I've found that it's important for me to be honest with myself and others, but without the burden of dislike, which causes one to have unbidden thoughts and prejudices, honest with others, well done, great writing, blessings

Hello Jaybird1,
This is a very nice poem about a plea for Honesty. You did a wonderful job on this poem. I concur with this message. Why do we lie? It makes things worst. Your message is beautiful written/ It has a nice sentence flow and nice rhyming of your end words. This is such a beautiful line, "
Just tell it straight and tell it true, you will feel better at the end." You are an awesome writer. I agree, "Truth is the answer." Well done.

This is a beautifully written poem. Nice flow and rhyme scheme. Be honest then until your life is through and good things may be awaiting you. Nicely done.

I agree. Lies create more lies as one forgets the first lie and adds another to cover that on and another . . . Your poem tells it like it is. Lies hurt so many people. Being able to avoid them is great. Be kind and supportive, but don't lie.
Thanks for sharing.
Respectfully, Jan

We all like honesty as there is no trust without it but in political circles it is hard to find. Honesty among friends is essential for relationships to grow, much enjoyed, loved the sentiments here, love Dolly x

So very true! Thank you, Jaybird, for showing us the way. It's also more peaceful in the heart and mind when we are honest with others and with ourselves.

Hello Jaybird, another fine poem from you, full of good advice. Good use of metaphor in 'The truth provides the needed glue, to bind you with a longtime friend'. Good abab rhyme throughout and a good rhyming couplet. I like your quote in your author note - 'Honesty is the proper path for a fruitful life- jaybird' - very good, words of wisdom. Take care, stay safe - warm regards Dorothy x
