Well Within

Live within your means Just as your looks are within your genes Drop not your chins For other’s surpassing sheens Play not another man’s game For it affords him glory and fame It’s a sure way to suffer waste and shame When you forego what was always in your name Your call proudly bear Though applause be scarce and rare Brace, endure and dare Be proven and never have to swear Walk thy pace Show thy face Make your case Firmly and with grace You are with beginning and with end And ye are rendered to depend Though ye are free to attack or defend Of your frailties you cannot pretend However the wind blows Wherever the river flows How sun shines and moon glows Only God knows K. Muitherero
