  ADVICE


Those who wish to advise others
Should practice what they preach
For their pupils need inspiring
To listen to what they teach.

Never give advice in a crowd
But wait till the time is right.
Speak your words with understanding
And your thoughts shall shine like light.

Elders can't help but give advice
Even if it's toward deaf ears.
They tell their stories of years gone by
With their love, sorrow and tears.

Our mothers always give advice
Eager to sound their alarm.
They warn us what to watch for
To save us from pain or harm.

Good advice helps us find our way
Though the process may seem slow.
Experience is our best teacher
Of those things we need to know.
