POEM-ADVICE

There’s something inside you, knock knock knock,

It’s the sound of your heart, ticking like a clock.

All day long and all night too,

Your tireless heart works hard for you.

From time to time your heart may ache,

And perhaps even feel like it’s going to break.

But luckily it’s quick to heal,

And get rid of the hurt that you may feel.

To stop your heart from feeling bad,

Be helpful and kind to those who are sad,

Smile at people you don’t yet know,

And your heart will warm you wherever you go.
