Steemit Poetry Contest #10 : Grow wise enough, beloved son!

Do not grow fast but please grow wise.
You grow up once you realise
that no one cares about your size
if all you say is nothing but lies.

It's never about how big you grow
but what you learned and what you saw
and mostly about how well you know
who's a friend and who's a foe.

Grow wise enough, beloved son,
to do the best that can be done.
For if you can't be number one
there's nothing left to be won.
