The cheaper your words become
But your bottom line is more apt to be
Your deeds, what you have done

When you tell to those who don't want to hear
You give them nothing
But when you show, you'll lift their fears
And give them everything

When you show, you live
And when you show you give
And what you give, you'll always have

You may be impressed by who you know
But better to make an impression on those that know you
Once again don't just tell 'em, show 'em
Don't just talk to your crops, grow 'em

It's then you look in the mirror and you've hit a home run

Show Weighs More Than Tell

A man of integrity you are.
I'm with you.
No use living any other way.

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©
