Look, Listen, and Be Proud

Just what the title says - just do it!

Your pride and demeanor, you will likely cleanse
With the look and listening an open heart sends.
Be appraised at what your true worth demands –
Speak with your mouth and tongue, not with your hands!

With terrible footing, you will surely fall prey
To fitful longing and disillusionment each day,
So strive to improve, and practice this teaching:
Listen, be proud, and to the skies, keep reaching!

Every person falls into hard luck sometimes –
Souls become beggars for nickels and dimes…
Just listen, be proud, and continue to look,
Your words, once spoken, do all favor the Book!
