Certain Thoughts Poem by Keith Foley

There are certain thoughts that should be taught,
While walking the winding way.

The road's not clear my precious dear,
So listen to your heart this day.

The heart can be heard in silent word,
When drifting alone at sea.

Be careful my child be kind and mild,
While talking to stranger or friend.

Never shall we know which day we'll go,
While traveling this road called life.

We can never unwind words spoken unkind,
Being tempted by the devil himself.

So guide your thoughts with words unbought,
By listening to your inner voice.

Because one day you'll complete this stay,
To travel the next road of life!
