A Poem for a Life
Be the bringer of peace
In all you say and do
Be an oasis of calm
When chaos surrounds you.
Try and do the right thing
And be upstanding always
Employ your moral compass
Throughout all your days
Be not the source of conflict
Nor of trouble nor of strife
Be above all pettiness
Live a clean and blameless life
Take wisely the counsel of elders
Show them courtesy and respect
Even if you disagree
Do not their words reject
Be aware of your social standing
And of what it means to you
Abide by scruples and values
That influence all you do
Be loyal, honest and trustworthy
Be dedicated, reliable, caring
Earn your pleasure from giving
And of generous sharing.
Above all be the person you are:
Unique and wonderful
Be proud of all you stand for
With head held high and walking tall!
Be the bringer of peace
In all you say and do
Be an oasis of calm
When chaos surrounds you.
Try and do the right thing
And be upstanding always
Employ your moral compass
Throughout all your days
Be not the source of conflict
Nor of trouble nor of strife
Be above all pettiness
Live a clean and blameless life
Take wisely the counsel of elders
Show them courtesy and respect
Even if you disagree
Do not their words reject
Be aware of your social standing
And of what it means to you
Abide by scruples and values
That influence all you do
Be loyal, honest and trustworthy
Be dedicated, reliable, caring
Earn your pleasure from giving
And of generous sharing.
Above all be the person you are:
Unique and wonderful
Be proud of all you stand for
With head held high and walking tall!
