(To at Least 5 of my 6 Descendants)

You’re passionate. I see and honor it.
You feel things deeply and coherently.
Your fast reactions are appropriate,
but not your forcefulness. Apparently
we’re fortunate; we’re anything but numb.
Though vehemence may vary by the hour,
nobody can complain you’re dull or dumb.
Your depth of sense is like a super power.

But every power needs to be controlled!
The challenge is to learn to modulate.
While waxing hot, you might engage in cold
consideration of your mental state.
Respectfully I tender this appeal:
to teach yourself to regulate your zeal.
