Advice Column

Who am I to say to you
Do this or do not do your will?
I may cajole, flatter or sue,
But may not dictate good or ill.
So with that understanding take
This calm advice I give the weight
You think that it deserves, and make
That judgment underlie its state
In your esteem. I know full well
This is no scripture that I write
But still as far as I can tell
It's proper wisdom in my sight:
Love me, and take the love I give
And in joint joy let us both live.
