Gossip is a creeping vine.
On others' business it will twine,
Shooting tendrils to and fro
And spreading where it should not go.
This "vine" can be a tangled mess.
Its growth we never should caress,
If we don't share the news we know
Gossip cannot start to grow!
"And be ye kind to one another..."
Ephesians 4:32 KJV
"Where no wood is, there the fire goeth out: so where there is no talebearer, the strife ceaseth."
Proverbs 26:20 KJV
