Array ( [sid] => 179145 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => When “I told you so” Is Inappropriate [time] => 2014-08-22 18:01:54 [hometext] => Please wake up to cell phone damage..a VERY real threat to life. [bodytext] =>

One can't very well
tell
one's niece, or sister-in-law or
step-daughter,
“I tried to tell you!
I sent you a dozen articles on how dangerous cell phones are.

I TOLD you you would get a brain tumor”.

One can't very well do that.

Perhaps I need to step it up while those
children's brains are still tumor free.
(But MOM! ALL my friends have one!)

Better to be a thorn
than the guy who could (but won't)
say
“I Told you so”.

Link to good article for first look into this little reported on danger facing our children most drastically.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
