My Parting Gifts

My parting words, which I'll keep quite brief Never mock another's religious belief Whether Christian or Muslim, Buddhist or Jew Only people, not God, would wish harm upon you. My second point that's of no less worth: Cherish every living creature ever put on this earth. Bring no harm to plants, to wildlife or to man, Live as peacefully coexistent as you possibly can. And finally, God witness, I share my true Creed, Which took me a lifetime to consistently heed. Whenever you seem to do naught but to lose, Tis time for a binge with both liquor and shoes!!!
