OUR TEACHINGS
Language is the door that opens to life,
education and learning directs our mind,
cultures and traditions set our ways,
religions and beliefs guide our days,
Experience changes the way we think,
the things that we learn no longer make sense,
there seems no logic in the written words,
understanding deepens and changes its worth.
Lines are drawn which we may not cross,
when we do it loads us with a lot of dross,
we cannot hurt others in any way,
for the day will come when we have to pay.
It's completely logical and makes full sense,
not to land up in this kind of mess,
to treat others with respect in word and deed,
so we can stand tall in our days of need.
