Still Waters Run Deep

E-very still water runs deep, 
U-nderneath lies the danger; 
N-ever ever jump to swim
I-nto the bottom of the river. 
C-alm oceans run deep, one can sense the abyss; 
E-ven if the coral reef is nice, nobody can conquer the seas.

D-epth of the silent man
E-xposes his intelligence; 
L-et his quietness talk
A-bout his mind's emergence.

C-almness means power, 
R-ecollected man is composed; 
U-sing his pure placidity, 
Z-one of triumph can't be opposed.

B-e like a still water, 
O-ctober twenty-fourth day; 
R-unning deep down inside, 
C-reating a righteous way.
E-ach one has wisdom, 
L-etting his mind to keep; 
I-ntelligent human makes
S-till waters run deep.
