Venial... Parable

Today's word is "venial" ... VEE-nee-uh l ... able to be forgiven or pardoned; not seriously wrong, as a sin (opposed to mortal). (Dictionary.com)

Parable
They seemed so very trivial,
Those words so quickly spoken,
But once they freely fled,
A friendship lay down, broken.

It was only gossip, venial,
And not even true,
With that kind of outcome,
They've changed their point of view.
