This month, we have two different poems: one for the guys to memorize, and one for the gals. (after you've memorized yours, feel free to memorize the other one if you want :))
(Young Men) IF BY RUDYARD KIPLING
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with Kings---nor lose the common touch, If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you, If all men count with you, but none too much: If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds' worth of distance run, Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, And---which is more---you'll be a Man, my son!
(Young Women) Mother's Prayer
Oh give me patience when wee hands
Tug at me with their small demands.
And give me gentle and smiling eyes.
Keep my lips from hasty replies. And let not weariness, confusion or noise
Obscure my vision of life's fleeting joys.
So when, in years to come my house is still
No bitter memories its rooms may fill.
(All) 1 Corinthians 4:2 Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.
