David Darbyshire - Granma Used to Say

Keep a nickel between your Knee's <br />Women are hard to Please <br />A closed mouth catches no flies <br />A dead man tells no Lie's <br /> <br />Being happy is better than being king <br />Do not allow sins to get beyond creeping <br />Discretion is the better part of valor <br />Be careful what you wish for <br /> <br />Beware the door with too many keys <br />Can't see the forest for the trees <br />Clouds gather before a storm <br />The early bird catches the worm <br /> <br />Can't get blood from any stones <br />Hard words break no bones <br />Half a loaf is better than none <br />Easier said than done <br /> <br />You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink <br />I hope all these lines, make you all Think <br />Don't bite off more than you can chew <br />Have to give 'Granny' credit where credit is due<br /><br />David Darbyshire<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/granma-used-to-say/
