How To Tell A Story

It’s probably best

When reflecting on the past

Not to focus too much

On what actually happened

When a bit of embellishment

And some outright lies

Can ameliorate the narrative

And render regret redundant

Thanks – I do enjoy the English language, it must have more synonyms than any other…

Ah, it’s great when thoughtful and smile-inducing poetry teaches you vocabulary as well — purely be context. Very nicely done!
