Do Not Say Yes
wherever you go
millons of mile away from home
do not say yes when you mean to say no
friends may fly away
and foes may come your way
do not say yes when you mean no to say
dirts may dent your eyes
and grey turns the blessed skies
do not delight in telling lies
hope may frown at you
and fear compasses you
do not paint a lie to be true.
