Rules Of Life Poem by Jessie Mahoney Bathis

RULES OF LIFE

Respect yourself,
Do not fall.
Wherever you are reaching,
Do not crawl.
To whom you're reaching for,
Do not scream.
At whom you love,
Say what you mean.
Trust your friends,
Treat them right.
Thank your parents,
For everything in sight.
Hug that person,
The one who you've opened yourself up to.
Hold them close,
Always show them what they mean to you.
