Do you Recall ?

Do you recall when first you played, was every call just right?
Did you dazzle everyone because you were so bright?
Was every wager flawless,did everytime you win?
Did you never foolishly say "heck I'll go all-in?
Not one of us is perfect; (though it's something we all yearn)
Mistakes and questions are not dumb, that is how we learn.
As we grow in understanding, and get better at the game
Be patient with the "newbies" instead of calling names.
For if you hurt and anger them,you can bet the river flow
Will enrich their meger hand and from the game you'll go!
