When you toil in kitchen for hours,
And make his favourite food
You know the salt is too much,
But he still says it is good.
.
Your daughter makes you a portrait,
Your nose is flat and mouth droops
But you still smile and say,
Hey, that’s just how I look
.
Your MIL buys a shirt FIL loathes,
The fit is poor and the color drab
His friends at the senior club snigger,
But he carries it for her, saying its fab
.
I make most feel good,
About themselves or another,
What’s bad in keeping peace,
As long as you don’t hurt the other
.
I always bring in smiles and whoops,
Unlike truth, that snarky guy
Still they badmouth me
The poor pretty little white lie.
Aww.. And love makes us a liar
I love that lie❤❤
Yes.. So often those little white lies are said to mk people feel happy..
Loved this poem. Made me smile. So many white lie make life so much sweeter. I compliment the simplicity of your poem. Sinple uncomplicated words made it sweeter.
Lies are lovely as long as it helps some one wear a smile …

White lies🤗🤗 Beautiful!💚💚
Can relate to your expression. White lies, though lies do bring a smile and spread happiness.
Then is it a lie at all
Very nice!! True , as long as a lie brings smile to someone’s face, it’s wonderful.
A lie that brightens a moment is better than a dozen butter truth.
Beautiful poem.
The truth brought out so well with such simplicity. So many white-lies surround us all the time, yet we happily continue with them 🙂
Very true…we all are guilty and tell lies to please ourselves and others.
Ah, the little lies we tell because they make our loved ones happy… Beautifully penned.
