  5.                            (For Vanessa Piccolo)
  6.  
  7.                     Venture along your life's long road,
  8.                     Among its finest floral forms.
  9.                     Nature has granted you're bestowed
  10.                     Especial strengths, to fight life's storms.
  11.  
  12.                     Savour each challenge -- every hope
  13.                     Should cheer your heart; engage your soul.
  14.                     As long as you're sincere, you'll cope,
  15.                     In every mode, which checks your role.
  16.  
  17.                     Sing with a voice which travels far;
  18.                     And shout those songs which utter joy!
  19.                     Beware of melodies which mar -- 
  20.                     Enfeeble, mangle, or destroy....
  21.  
  22.                     Let love be sacred in your life.
  23.                     Love is the virtue which bears all.
  24.                     Ascribe to thoughts which stifle strife!
  25.                     Peace, then, will hasten to your call.
  26.  
  27.                     Instill life's virtues in your mind.
  28.                     Cherish its pleasures as you grow.
  29.                     Cherish its treasures, and you'll find
  30.                     Only the good good lives bestow.
  31.  
  32.                     Live all your days in ways that sing
  33.                     Of just the good in everything!
