Pause and Reflect
Mistrust no one without a cause
Nor trust someone without proof,
Before you do follow someone—pause,
Find shelter before storm hits the roof
Perform your duty without applause
Stand not in a party aloof.
Every road you take leads somewhere
Every load lightens at some place,
There is a sure mend to every tear
Solution to many a tangled case,
There is love to give and woe to share
and troubled souls to embrace.
"Quatrets" contest by Isaiah Zerbst
