Be Prudent

a poem by Benna Rao Goli

Folly makes the life tumble down,
Acts of wisdom brings you renown;
Deviate not from his path,
Despise Him never and get His wrath.

Make not a presence of a fool,
Handle not any evil tool;
Be prudent and discern His way,
God has for you His own pay.

Bring not to God abomination,
Instead seek Him for His own;
Keeping off greedy for unjust gain,
And helping the needy who’re in pain.

Have good sense, which wins favour,
Do good things that ever endure;
Seek for wisdom a fountain of life,
Keep cool spirits and get no strife.
