Listen, even to them that are new Looking for the Good is always a choice Do not restrict what does not agree with you. Above all else, never have Conceit and think You are above the rest and now excel We are all learning and our efforts link To Poetry, as we read - we learn well. For life is a never- ending school And those who succeed are those who are able To look beyond the flaws and to use his tools While all the while remaining very teachable!
