Listen To Your Cricket
Disney's Jiminy Cricket,
is my favorite guy, by far!
Since I first saw him singing,
"When you wish upon a star".
He was just a little Cricket.
But despite his tiny size,
Jiminy had a heart of gold
and was very smart and wise!
"You must avoid temptation",
he told his wooden friend.
"If you listen to your conscience,
you'll be happy in the end".
I admire Jiminy's attributes
and the values that he set.
To be appointed "Official Conscience",
is about as good as it can get!
Pinocchio learned to choose right from wrong
and when troubled on what to decide,
He relied on Jiminy's insightful advice,
"To let your conscience be your guide"!
