The author's words are clear, meaningful and creative. I found this
poem to give great advice to all. I agree with this author - truth is
definitely the answer. This poem is a perfect example of how much
truthful words matter. Thank you for this well written poem.

Hello Jay,
I couldn't agree with you more, Jay. Honesty is something that our country's leader has never had, in my opinion.
This is very well written and I especially like the way you close it out.
Take care, my friend...Bill

Honesty with self sometimes is hard for some, but as you say, it is the way to go. Nothing heavy to carry in your pocket of life.
Well said poet. I find no fault. Thanks for sharing.

Honesty can be so difficult sometimes as it coincides with vulnerability. Your poem is a good reminder that sometimes excepting that vulnerability will lead to more strength in the end, whether between two people or within your own character

I enjoyed the ending stanza "Be honest then, til life is through and good things may be waiting you. This poem flows very well and dosen't feel forced. Don

Sir, that poem should be sent to the Congress of the United States. There are many, there, who need reminding, though I doubt it would help.
Good old American honesty, following the law , upholding the Constitution - seems to have taken a hiatus in the hallowed halls. However, I applaud your thoughts and your message.
Congratulations on being recognized.

-I appreciate your note and poem, jaybird.
-I agree that with truth the treasures do await,
and lying usually ends up hurting both parties.
-The last verses are also very true:
the truth will "bind you with a longtime friend."
-A very good closing couplet, too.
-Very well done.

Amen Amen, Jay. The truth obviously hurts some people however. They have trouble discerning the truth from a lie quite often, I'm afraid. Good thing nobody is running our country who has that problem, eh? LOL What a mess. Bob

Well done Jay, this carried a lot of meaning and truth in it. The truth is bitter but it saves a lot and gives a clear conscience.
I enjoyed reading it and I wish you the best .
