Tap

Tap the sap while it's young.
A tap here a tap there keeps 
the sap in place.Trust me
the branch will not break.
Tapping the sap helps it not to
stray far away from the teachings.

Tap the sap while it's young.
So the tree can be healthy and
strong lacking nothing.

It works with children also. We can tap the potential and much of it will leak out and help the child grow. Nicely written. Vince
