Truth For Dummies Poem by Long Tooth

To live without known flaws or aches
Is providence of tender age,
Enjoy the youth that's briefly yours,
Learn all you can from life's detours,
Give voice to words in need of stage
When virtue soars, don't fear mistakes.

Do your best to keep life simple,
Blessed to know your frame's God's temple,
Knowing friends are 'greatest treasure, '
Find your joy in other's pleasure.
Trust your needs to God's provision,
'Grace to all' your life's decision.

Share Spoils of Peace with enemies
And place at Feast to change their mind,
Control is not where safety lies
But man's delusion in disguise.
The risk is slight in being kind,
Find wealth in new economies!
