Comment from Jesse James Doty
Yes, Beth, to learn the truth and develop skills to recognize lies is a sure-proof way toward wisdom of the highest degree. I love this message and noticed you won third place in a contest so I wanted to read what you had to say about wisdom. Well said and a good idea!

Hi Beth,
This senryu gives good life advice. Especially in this technological world we need to be able to find lies in more places now.
Congrats on placing third in the contest.
Have a great week
Keep writing and stay healthy

Comment from EeanBlack
Wow, I was lied to for thirty-two years. The truth was liberating because it not only freed me it freed my creative soul. I'm a work in progress. lol

Comment from ElPoetry001
Writing is like a map. Open it up and find the State you are looking for.
Disregard any information that doesn't assist you in reaching your destination.
Determine how far it is from where you start.
Too basic?
Many articles are strictly subjective. You opened the article based on "click-bait."
Ok, where is the guide for verification?
Although writing is not a religious ritual, "confirmation," is.
The used car salesman said: "The Air-conditioning is ice cold."
I said: "Why are you telling me this? I am trying to buy a Harley Davidson motorcycle."

Thank you for an interesting review. When you are writing with so few words you have no choice but to disregard anything that doesn't apply. I really appreciate the six stars.

Wise words to live by. We all need to acquire these skills and put them to use. The message you send works well in this 5-7-5 poem. Best of luck in the contest.

Comment from bob cullen
Perhaps you should commence providing lessons in this subject. We could all do with this type of knowledge come election times. Politicians are masters in truth manipulation.

Thank you Bob. I couldn't give lessons because I want to learn how to do this myself. Thanks for the review and comments.

Comment from Bill Schott
This 5-7-5, Wisdom, has the proper formatting and reminds us that sometimes people don't lie, but are wrong. The hard one is know if they actually know better.

Thank you Bill. Some people just pass along what they hear without bothering to check to see if they might be passing on lies without knowing it.

Comment from Wendy G
An excellent 5-7-5, meeting the requirements and beautifully presented. That is the sort of wisdom much needed in today's world - to both discern truth, and be able to recognise lies, which really include anything less than the whole truth, for even partial truth or lies mixed with truth shows intent to deceive. Best wishes fr your cleverly-written entry.

Yes the Lord said, be as gentle as a dove, but as wise a serpent. Which is the way we should be, this is great wisdom, it seems so obvious and simple but it's not. Beautifully written Beth, blessings Roy

Comment from GoWiSt
Wow! Nice complementary picture art choice.
Successfully met the line and syllable count requirements for this 5-7-5 poem contest.
Wouldn't it be great if we could somehow extra-sensorily discern truths and lies from people's words--or just by simply looking at them? LOL
Good luck!
