Judge Not

October 18, 2022

If I don’t know the path that you’ve trod,
Nor walked in your shoes, not a step,
Then I’ve no right to think you are odd,
Or consider your actions inept.

Perhaps you’ve survived many trials,
That would cause many others to fail.
It’s remarkable you can still smile,
When others would cry, even wail.

I hate to hear others complain
About how someone else should behave.
We all are a tad bit insane,
Even more as we’re nearer our grave.

I’ll take a deep breath and relax,
Judge not without all of the facts.
