Adage

R-eminding you of one
O-ld and well known
S-aying that expresses
E-ach truth that has grown.

E-arly eighth of September, 
S-ave a penny to earn; 
T-hrift is coupled with hard work, 
A-n early bird gets the worm.
N-ever forget the maxim, 
I-n spite of your age; 
L-et the proverb preach
L-esson from every 
A-dage.
