A Parents Last Advice

Listen close my little ones Life's a maze don't come undone Hold your heart guard your mind Truth and kindness intertwined In the night and in the day Glimmer stars will light your way Friends and foes they shift like sand Stand your ground and take your stand Think it through don't rush the tide Mind your steps where truths collide In your heart the compass lies Seek the truth beneath the skies Trust is earned not freely given Walk the path that's righteous driven Lead with love and courage bright Shine your light in darkest night When I'm gone and winds blow cold Feel my words and you'll be bold Face the storms and make your mark Let your mind ignite the spark Voice your thoughts be clear and strong Right the wrongs and sing your song Guard your joy but share your pain Through the sunshine and the rain
