A Lesson to be Learned

 

Often life can be taken for granted

As we rush through our given years

We have no time to stop and consider

Good advice that is given by peers

 

Often guilty of thinking we know it all

Words of wisdom we cast from our mind

But when things start to quickly unravel

We can soon find ourselves in a bind

 

If only we would stop and listen

To what our elders all had to say

This world would be a far better place

For young people to live in today

 

They learned from experiences good and bad

So they know what this life is about

Passing on their wisdom and knowledge

That could help us resolve fear and doubt

 

Even now we just keep on ignoring

Their advice passed down through the years

How to live in peace with each other

And bring an end to all heartache and tears

 

So let us all come close together

Bring an end to all conflict and strife

Take care of the suffering children

Give them peace, and a far better life.
