Hashem never overlooks a good or bad deed,

Even the rightous, punishment can be decreed.

The world cannot stand only on דין,

So hashem allows us to repent for our sins.

To get zehirus, learning Torah is essential,

A fire burns within us to reach our full potential.

It is too late once we are in the grave,

So now is the time to work on how we behave!

This world is compared to a confusing maze,

The only way to succeed is to consider our ways.

Without contemplation, our world can be dark,

But the Torah can provide us with a much-needed spark!

It is crucial to save time for contemplation,

And consider your final destination.

Without zehirus, it is like we are blind,

But with some thought, the correct path we can find!

Like a peasant trying to woo a princess,

The holy soul is hard to impress.

There are many distractions this world deploys,

It is mitzvos the soul most enjoys!

We are put in the middle of a strong war,

Faced with a test of what we are living for.

We have the yetzer harah both in front and behind,

Our goal is to have d'veykus on our minds!

The Ramchal promises to be our coach,

He takes us through a step-by-step approach.

Learning mussar requires introspection,

Mesillas Yesharim sets us off in the right direction!

This is the intro to the Path of the Upright,

Studying mussar gives us insight.

The Ramchal says he teaches nothing new,

But we might forget, so we must constantly review.

The Chafetz Chaim stresses the importance of going to shul,

Our tefillah will be answered in full.

There is good to be gained,

just by answering amen!

The yetzer hara promises a person many years,

But it is only a matter of time before those disappear.

Guard your ears, mouth, and eyes,

Those who listen to rebuke are counted among the wise.
