Before You Poem
by William Arthur

"Before you speak, listen"

So goes the first line of William Arthur Ward's short, provocative poem.

How many of us do what Williams says, do you think?

Hmm...

So I'd say the poem theme is Self-improvement.

Enjoy.

Inspiring Poems

Before You - what William Arthur Ward has to say...

Before you speak, listen.
Before you write, think.
Before you spend, earn.
Before you invest, investigate.
Before you criticize, wait.
Before you pray, forgive.
Before you quit, try.
Before you retire, save.
Before you die, give.
