A little Light

This poems was written as a guide to my son advising him on how to live his life

A little light can give you sight                       

All you may need to cure a blight

So take a pause and contemplate

Don’t be so worried to miss your flight

 

Seek every joy with due measure

Finders aren’t keepers for every treasure

When you adventure, when you explore

Don’t play with things that aren’t for pleasure

 

Don’t pick a fight that it’s not right

Learn to stay quiet, when you have might,

All little things that pass you by

Hold on to them to get delight

 

When you deliver do it with grace

If it’s too tight, don’t run that race

Nurture a smile that stays on face

To reach the top, don’t cut the base

   

When in a jungle don’t lose your sight

I’ve seen things sting which never bite

You are not alone in fear of dark

Each day I have seen came through the night
