Obedience

1.Possessing obedience immortalizes, others	
in wicked darkness
2.Conserve patience as treasure
nothing betters it.
3.Maintaining patience, after analyzing
known wise regard.
4.Adhering obedience ever, cosidered
greater than mountain.
5.Obedience, good for all
among rich, opulent.
6.Controlling senses like turtle’s
Organs, yield blessedness.
7.control tongue, failing all
if not suffer
8.Despite one, word obscene
 whole charity lost
 9.Fire-burn heals but tongue- burn 
 as sore ever.
10.Altruism waits gazing at
the appeased learned.
