Teach Her These Things

Teach her to be independent 
To be self-sustaining 
Creative enough to earn her own income
Teach her to be versatile 
And alert to grab opportunities when she sees any 
Tell her that the bag and shoes must not always fit in color 
And too much contour makes it look like the sun hugged her face 
Tell her that she doesn't need everything to be happy 
So all her properties and box of ornaments don't count actually 
Tell her those old clothes could fit the poor and needy
Those shoes could save a feet from a piercing nail 
So why let them lay idle when they could be useful 
Tell her to always be positive 
For everything positive ends well 
Teach her these things
