Triolet 2 - Dear Child

Triolet 2 - Dear Child


Refrain, dear child, from ways perverse –
Reverse, recoil, retreat, recede;
With wrong doers, do not converse.
Refrain, dear child, from ways perverse:
To you, let them become averse...
Unless on shame you wish to feed,
Refrain, dear child, from ways perverse –
Reverse, recoil, retreat, recede.
