PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Once a way not known today,

    Came upon a child.

It was unheard, some thought absurd,

    Just simply not the style!



To do as instructed,

    And not to give up.

With the feelings worn,

    Above the cuff.



Not to lie,

    Unless Asleep,

And not doing either,

    Upon the feet.



To persist and endear,

    To that of the truth.

To stay with the now,

     But be prepared for the new.



To show patience to all,

    And when called for it grace.

With self be control,

    And discretion in place.



And not to respect,

    Those Prematurely,

But let it be learnt,

     And Witnessed Securely.



And most of all,

    Let it be said,

That though life is quite free,

    It requires to be fed.
