Bernardo F. Asuncion Poet Verse

Let Us Walk the Talk

Let us walk the talk, 
Be true, honest and deep; 
Make no promises
That we ourselves cannot keep.

Practice what we preach, 
As parents and elders should show; 
Because the kids imitate them, 
As the youth gradually grow.

Teaching by example
Is effective though made mild; 
For what we do is weighed right
In the eyes of a little child.

Let us keep our words
That we tell to youngsters; 
Or else they lose trust in us, 
Even on serious matters.

Match declaration with deed, 
As faith must be coupled with works; 
Listen and pay attention to the line: 
'Action speaks louder than words'.

Stand to be good role models, 
Wearing probity and positive outlook; 
Both old and young will admire us, 
Let us walk the talk.
