A Father's Advice Poem by Elbert Matt Loubser
A Father's Advice
To be what makes a difference
In all we know to be
Is something of significance
And as yet we have to see
To change the boulders laid
That fear not all but change
Is to forget what has been made
Within no mortal range
To seek what has been hidden
The truth we need to seek
If found not be forgotten
These deathly sins do reek
Listen now dear child, these truths are all but lies
Endure all hardships on your way and you shall surely rise
ELBERT I HAVE TOLD YOU ONCE AND IM GOING TO SAY IT AGAIN. YOU ARE A GREAT WRITER AND I MAY BE TOO SOFT BUT AGAIN IT BROUGHT TEARS TO MY EYES
Wisdom is the beauty of this poem. Great write, Elbert.
Sounds a lot like Rudyard Kipling’s ‘If’. For some motherly advise read my ‘Bloom of Youth’. Adeline
