Thank you,  administrators,  for the accolade and your hard work.

Listen Wisely

Studies have shown that loud
Talkers are those who have lower
Self-confidence, using their voice in a crowd
Implies they’re trying to overwhelm listener

With their high pitch, while imparting
Little wisdom with gossip galore.
Speak your mind, but do it without parading
How rudely, loudly you interrupt the core

Of the flow of conversation.
What’s best is speaking wisely only,
Listen, think, then offer your opinion
Quietly imposing self-respect, carefully,

So that hearing and processing
What’s being said becomes innate,
As you’re not showing off, rather, stating
Knowledge in an acceptable tone with great

Purpose of conveying advice
That can be helpful if used wisely,
Not thrown away because it’s a piece
Spoken softly in tune with minds’ frequency.
