***
a little lie once was told.
wrapped in a smile & clad in plain white
nothing too fancy to behold,
it was just a little lie.
the plain truth once was said
slithering silently through the dark veiled eyes
a venomous spite, fraught with dread,
it was just the plain truth.
***
the little lie if unraveled
becomes the venomous bitter truth,
and entombs the poisoned heart forever.
bringing a cheer instead of a mournful cry
keeping the dark veil of truth at bay,
is the innocuous little lie.
...so the moral of the story is?

Truly, to tell lies is not honorable;
but when the truth entails tremendous ruin,
To speak dishonorably is pardonable.

Truth and lies. The age old debate. And reality !
In the times of sach ke saamna and crores at stake. Topical indeed !!
you make it worth so much more by your expression.... i am always in an awe every time i read your posts.

so the moral of the story is "keep your mouth shut"
Seriously, shuddup and enjoy life.. y need to dabble in lies and truths wen they make n break relations :-)
Hey katzz hows u??? sowwie bit busy travelling...
@ Kavi: forget topical, i'd rather be somewhere tropical!! *sigh*
"a bottle o' rum,
a hammock in the sun.
one kohl-smudged eye to keep
on the fine lasses who wear flowers in their hair;
while the eye underneath the patch looks out for me mermaid.
cause i must go to where she calls me out;
my never ending chase."
...ok yeh, kuch zyada hi sach hoh gaya!!
:D
@ Mehreen: thank you...thank you...thank you...i'll try to be careful!!

@ d'Rat: teri logic toh infallible hai!! by now you should be ruling the world missy (at least the rodent half of it)...
...while you have been busy traveling, i have been busy being sick with the flu...but i'm fine now. :D
Moral of the STORY?
I thought its a POEM!!!
If something does not have a moral, is it immoral?
Anyways, was it swine flu?
@ Stupid: buhahahahahahahahaaa!!! story/poem ek hi baat. but tere immoral prehistoric dimaag mein se morality mein expect bhi nahi karta...
...and no, not the swine flu. but none-the-less sickening & equal misery inducing common influenza. i could give you the doc's report if ya want mate!!!

We meet again..at a junction of truth and lies...we take our paths and stay in touch!!
