In he whom I endued with life and love
does to one patient in hope bear reward -
a trueborn heir a man can be proud of
and whom well affectioned is well adored.
Follow the pathfinder maps to your soul
and hold fast its moral bearings inward -
trust in seen and unseen, in faith uphold
and in your heart recompense good for good.
Thus be not reckless in your own conceits
but wise to just cause and love’s whispered breath -
walk safely in the world in all your feats
lest it suffer me and quicken my death.
Make your way like him ragged and unshod
and bend your knee unto no one but God.

========================
Father forms first fecund features
Attaining all adroit artisan attitudes
The trueborn titles truthful triumph
His humbleness hails heirship honor
Ennobling earthly efforts evoke excellence
Rearing relations retaining roots rights

~ Christmas Is Approaching ~
(Pantoum)
Christmas is approaching
Us so fast by now
There's rejoicing more cheer
Hearts in Christmas glow
Up so fast by now
Child Jesus will be born
Hearts in Christmas glow
All with His love trueborn
Child Jesus will be born
He brings only peace, love
All with His love trueborn
With good tidings from 'bove
Christmas nearly here
There's rejoicing more cheer
For He's the reason
Christmas is approaching.
