Passed Down



Oh dearest wise Great Grand Mama
Her soothing wisdom our delight
Look before you sleep and dream
Find nothing there to spoil your night

Take time when doing clever things
Don’t let hasty call the tune
It’s not the speed that gets it done
When you have all afternoon

And time will never wait for you
When you misplace you from fun
For idleness obeys no clock
If you wait for hands to run

The world is full of oyster beds
Nothing good comes easy though
Luck will rarely help you find your pearls
For easy come is easy go

Life finds ways to test us all
We must take note of our mistakes
Accept that laurels cannot last
And balance all our gives and takes
