Foundations

A house built upon a Sandy Foundation
Can-not withstand the tempests and storms
The foolish man built on a Sandy Foundation
Such wisdom to him, a quaint remnant of yore

Relations, like houses, begin with foundations
Sandy or rocky: just how will we build them?
Those that are built on a Sandy Foundation
Will suffer great falls, as the wisdom of old

So too Conversations are built on foundations
We build them each time we converse with another
The wisdom of ages will guide through the danger
Reminding us always to look where we start

To build up Relations we use conversation
But what are we building and where did we start?
For no matter the stature and beauty of housing
The foundation is surely what matters at heart
