Ancient Book

I’ve found an ancient, timely Book,

On Its pages I daily look.

It gives advise for married folk,

Agrees that salt goes with the yolk,

Encourages a carefulness,

Lifts one up when in distress.

Gives wisdom to all who ask,

Wearing Its “yoke” is not a task.

Will you also read this great Book?

You’ll never regret Its ways you took.
