First Thing You Think Of

Recommended Posts

If we meet and I say, "Hi,"
That's a salutation.
If you ask me how I feel, 
That's consideration.
If we stop and talk awhile,
That's a conversation.
If we understand each other,
That's communication.
IF we argue, scream and fight,
That's an altercation.
If later we apologize,
That's reconciliation.
If we help each other home,
That's cooperation.
And all these ations added up
Make civilization.

(And if I say this is a wonderful poem,
Is that exaggeration?)

 

-Shel Silverstein
