Advice
Оглавление1. Some people don’t like any advice,
Someone likes to give to others few words wise.
Adviser can be competent ever
But mostly not authoritative.
2. All people are in need of one, or not?
Bitter experience may advise a lot.
Life has too much sudden surprise.
And sometimes we can’t get advice.
3. The best advice, which comes in time,
Which is delayed, is not fine.
Advice in time is trusty friend,
Who can be rendering a real help.
4. So many kinds of advice are,
Is beautiful, or an unwise one.
Too many advisedly say,
But all does on adviser depend.
5. A lot of advices people have.
In all centuries something to tell.
The past knew very kindly sages
Who gave the best advices in ages.
6. We must take wisdom to heart,
And never loose the better side.
They had learnt by experience of life,
And wanted to help people fly.
7. The great minds of the world live now,
They living are in the words and their sound.
Always are helping us in time,
If only thoughts their we know fine.
8. Think and do what you’re told by the sage:
Help everyone if you can manage.
But never expect gratitude,
Make haste there, not waiting for good.
9. Too many men, and many minds,
No two minds think alike, what does one’s.
Is very difficult to give advice
When people don’t love them, who are wise.
10. But not everyone closes his ears, no,
There is somebody, who wants to know.
It’s beautiful! To be wise,
Grey wisdom never left our hearts!
