The Hamlet Project

Blessings seasoned with advice
A little sprinkle to give it some extra flavor
A shaving of counsel. Or in this case
Most of the meal is advice
With just a hint of blessing at the start and finish.
Mostly, advice and blessing don’t pair well together.
If someone gives me a heaping
Spoonful of advice, the blessing is usually
Overcome, if it’s included at all.
My own father, though, gave me this very advice
And it was a blessing.
