Ations

If we meet and I say, 'Hi,' That's a salutation. If you ask me how I feel, That's a consideration. If we stop and talk a while, That's a conversation. If we understand each other, That's a communication. If we argue, scream and fight, That's an altercation. If later we apoligize, That's reconciliation. If we help each other home, That's a cooperation. And all these actions added up Make Civilization. (And if I say this is a wonderful poem, Is that exaggeration?)
