Choose not the nicest guy, 
Choose not your friend; 
Choose who did simplify
A lot, and could on depend! 
Choose not who promises heaven, 
Choose not the new; 
Choose who gave and still is giving, 
And did for long his dreams pursue.
Choose not the freshman who: 
Knows none about a thing; 
Choose who did just preview
His plans, and will what promised bring.
Choose not what your heart
Blindly guides to mischoose; 
Choose who have tasted Art, 
Not who'd just all art abuse! 
Choose but who knows best, 
Not who thinks it's just a game; 
Choose that who will not rest, 
Until these Arts are all aflame! 
Choose who you ever want, 
Remember that the choice is yours; 
Although your mind may taunt
You for what can't no time restore! 
Choose not the nicest guy, 
Choose who his hand will lend, 
To you; and but yet nigh, 
You might just make a future friend!
