This is quite a philosophical puzzle. The best solution was, perhaps, your beguiling smile, without destroying either truth or honesty.

Welcome back, dear friend! This is such a great poem and really makes one think. Honesty and truth: honestry tells all; truth, not always. But the point perhaps is, there are times to weigh how much and who it is that will be destroyed in the telling. Love your work.

Darling friend,connections are incredible mysteries and I am not about to try to work out the mystery of such connections.

This morning you were on my mind; I was wondering where you were, even if you were, and if so how you are feeling. I come into blogit with you on my mind and here you are. You are a brother and I seem to have loved you for years, it is so good to have you back.

I guess white lies are the easiest if not the most honorable.

Avoiding the facts is less than honest.

Truth be told, it is best to include all of the details, then allow the person hearing them decide on the idea of the truth or the real deal. Everyone deciphers things differently, so that has to be a consideration.

It's a great question to ask. For me, the answer is no.

Good poem, but you ask a hard question.  I thought I knew the answer to your question but when I tried to put it down in writing I found I could not do it.
