Eagerly It Should Be Greeted

Acknowledging that one's nose,
Is attached where it is on one's face...
Should be incentive enough,
Not to attempt to place it...
In the business of others.

Just like ears and lips!

To maximize their purpose for good use...
Some people often learn too late,
What belongs to them seldom flaps in the wind.
And what should be separated to respect.
Is not to be set loose for idle gossip to inspect.

There is nothing like being taught a good lesson,
That corrects misunderstandings!
Come late in life or not...
Eagerly it should be greeted,
With a hope that it stays!
